Abstract
Although there have been improvements in mental health-related issues among teens in the U.S., much work remains, suggests the new report released on Aug. 6 by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). The data also highlights worsening trends in protective sexual behaviors, experiences of violence, persistent sadness or hopelessness, and suicidal thoughts and behavior.
