Founded in 2023, REAL TALK, Real Support became an official peer-led social-emotional support resource for parents of children with mental health struggles. Meetings serve to combat the feelings of loneliness and isolation that typically come with raising children in a world filled with stigma over mental health.
The COVID-19 pandemic brought increased attention to the mental health needs of families and children; however, the prevalence of these struggles has long been a growing concern – especially in children. Historically, parents must navigate a complex, multi-system plan of care to keep their children mentally and physically safe, leaving them exhausted, confused and isolated.
Sharing what your family is going through comes with fear of judgement and rejection. However, there is a level of peace and relief that comes with it as well. REAL TALK support group meetings were born out of necessity – to give parents and caregivers a place to talk through their feelings, share resources and celebrate the victories.
