Having a community of empathetic people can help a child build resilience.
Ever wondered how to help kids bounce back from life's challenges? In this episode of 'Road to Recovery', Yonah Budd dives into the complex world of resilience, mental health, and legal battles. With over 40 years of experience, Yonah sheds light on pressing issues like sexual assault cases at St. Mike's and a Toronto dance academy. But that's not all. He also tackles the mental health care gap that leaves many struggling, especially in the age of virtual consultations.
Yonah is joined by Monte MacGregor, a barrister and solicitor, to discuss why Ontario lawyers are protesting new guilty plea certificates. Together, they explore how these legal changes impact mental health care access. One of the standout moments in this episode is Yonah's emphasis on teaching kids resilience. He argues that empathy and community support are crucial in helping children navigate tough times, particularly in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic.
The conversation also touches on the alarming rise in overdose deaths from substances like cocaine and methamphetamine, which have tripled alongside opioid fatalities. Yonah advocates for decriminalizing small amounts of drug possession to ensure people get the help they need rather than ending up in jail. If you're interested in understanding the multifaceted issues surrounding mental health and addiction, this episode offers valuable insights and practical advice.
