Notes

Globally, student mental health has been on a decline but was exacerbated by pandemic school closures and isolation. In the current US educational landscape, over 40% of US school students experienced persistent feelings of sadness or hopelessness, and over 20% seriously considered attempting suicide. Education institutions (and whole systems) are increasingly integrating technology-led solutions to support student well-being as part of their broader student support services.
