There has been a teen mental health crisis for the last several years, and this has only been exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic. As a group, boys have been experiencing concerning well-being difficulties for far too long now, including during the pandemic.

Dr. Christopher Reigeluth, a psychologist at OHSU specializing in masculinity and the mental health of boys and men, will join us to give his presentation, “Inside the Teen Mental Health Crisis: Boys, Masculinities, and Making a Difference.” He will discuss the effects of masculinity pressures on boys’ mental health, along with social media’s role in the overall teen mental health crisis. Importantly, he will delve into how, during this present moment, all of us can find ways to do better for our boys.
