On Thursday, November 3, 2023 at 1:00 pm, Mayor Simmons joined by Director of Health Jody Bishop-Pullan, Vin Tufo from the Vita Health and Wellness Partnership, and members of the Stamford Youth Mental Health Alliance (YMHA) rolled out a new video highlighting the vision and mission of the Alliance. The Mayor highlighted the City of Stamford’s new Mental Health Resources brochure, which is available to residents and available in English, Spanish, and Haitian Creole.
The Youth Mental Health Alliance is a coalition of organizations engaged in a data-driven, collaborative process, using evidenced based interventions where appropriate, to address the mental health issues facing our youth, which is an increasingly urgent public health issue in Stamford and across the country.
