It is no secret the pandemic has had a challenging effect on our children. As a result, the state is providing more than $4.5 million in summer mental health grants for schools and camps over a three-year period.
Several organizations in Hartford will receive a total of $359,501. Our students deserve year-round support, and this critical funding will help address their social and emotional needs in the summer months.

The funding will allow students to seek out the mental health services they need to acclimate, grow, and prosper in and outside of the classroom.
