More young people are now being assessed and treated for mental health concerns.
Minister of State in the Ministry of Health and Wellness, Davidson Ishmael, made this disclosure. He says this is a result of a dedicated psychologist deployed at clinics across the island.
He was speaking at a church service marking the 132nd anniversary of the Psychiatric Hospital.
Minister Ishmael says the Ministry of Health and Wellness is also working to strengthen mental health services in communities.
He adds that early intervention is key to addressing mental health challenges before they escalate.
