Confident Connections

Welcome! Confident Connections is a collection of resources designed for parents and caregivers of children in grades K-12 to learn about and support youth mental health.  

Supporting youth mental health is firmly grounded in a strong relationship – a confident connection – between parent and child. 

Fostering a strong relationship between parent and child is essential in nurturing youth mental health. This collection of resources is designed to create a confident connection between parents and caregivers and their school-aged children.  

Explore our resources below to engage your child in meaningful conversation, connect with your child in an authentic way, and learn more about youth mental health and wellness.
