July is Minority Mental Health Awareness Month. Here are some stats to consider from RTOR.org:
* Black and Latinx children were about 14% less likely than White youth to receive treatment for their depression.
* In 2019, suicide was the second leading cause of death for Black or African Americans, ages 15 to 24. For Native Hawaiians/Pacific Islanders ages 15-24, suicide was the leading cause of death.
* Over 25% of Black youth exposed to violence have proven to be at high risk for post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).

Hello my fellow SLPs! I have been working on a startup to help children with speech and language difficulties. My app's name is ASD 123. I would love any feedback from you on your thoughts on it. I want it to be something useful. The child powers our activities by using their voice.

Our prototype is on the App store and Google Play store (linked below) I am aware we have bugs at this time. Really looking to have it tried out in schools and in clinics and happy to work with you as a co-developer to evolve it.
