Since the pandemic the number of people struggling with anxiety and depression has increased dramatically across America, resulting in what the white house is calling a mental health crisis.
It's not just adults struggling with mental health issues though, it's kids too.
Here in Idaho the number of children experiencing depression and anxiety has climbed ten percent since 2016. That number comes from the new Kids Count report released just this month.
Christine Tiddens, the Director ofIdaho Voices for Children, joined Idaho Matters to talk more about the health needs of children in Idaho.
