   Hello,

   Thank you for your blog posts on bullying and the affects it has on our youth. Good mental health is important for every child. It affects every aspect of a child’s life and their overall health. Trusted up-to-date resources make it easier to discuss mental health issues, educate readers, and protect our children.

   Every day in our schools and communities, children are teased, threatened, or tormented by bullies. To help care for our youth, the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMSHA) developed webpages and resources (print and online) that serve can as useful tools to you and your readers.

   • About Bullying http://mentalhealth.samhsa.gov/15plus/aboutbullying.asp

   • Systems of Care http://www.systemsofcare.samhsa.gov/

   • National Strategy for Suicide Prevention http://nmhicstore.samhsa.gov/suicideprevention/pubs.aspx

   • National Suicide Prevention Initiative http://mentalhealth.samhsa.gov/cmhs/nspi/

   These sites offer parents, caregivers, educators, and other professionals a great opportunity to know the facts, recognize signs and symptoms, and access easy to read tips on how to talk to children about mental health. These resources can help caregivers build healthier, safer environments and support anti-bullying initiatives. For additional information on this topic and more, or to order resources at no cost, please call the SAMHSA hotline at 1-877-SAMHSA-7 or visit http://www.samhsa.gov/shin/.

   Thank you for your time. We appreciate all the work that you do to educate others and share information about mental health.

   Sincerely,

   SAMHSA Health Information Network
