Maine State data highlights that a significant percentage of young people suffer from anxiety, depression, and feeling of loneliness. This can lead to a conviction that they don’t matter to their community. Maine Resilience Building Network (MRBN) Executive Director Kini-Ana Tinkham, R.N., will invite participants to collectively learn and discuss ways to enhance mattering in our communities.
