Lucero
In today’s challenging environment, supporting mental health is crucial, especially for our youth who face unique stressors and significant barriers to accessing mental health care. Lucero emerges as a transformative resource, specifically designed to cater to the mental health needs of adolescents. With a foundation built by over 50 licensed therapists, game designers, software developers, and youth, Lucero integrates therapeutic principles with engaging technology to foster holistic wellness.
Current statistics reveal a concerning trend: approximately half of all mental health conditions begin by the age of 14, yet an alarming 90% of these adolescents do not receive the therapy they need. Lucero seeks to bridge this gap, offering immediate, accessible support, which is especially vital as our communities continue to recover from the collective trauma of the COVID-19 pandemic.
At YPR, we recognize the crucial role that caregivers play in the mental health and the holistic wellness journeys of youth. By equipping caregivers with Lucero, we empower them with tools to effectively support the complex challenges of developing minds. This not only aids in the caregiver’s recovery journey but also acts as a proactive measure, providing youth with a preventative resource that can guide them toward emotional regulation and resilience.
As staff members dedicated to this cause, your efforts in promoting Lucero are essential. By ensuring that caregivers and youth are aware of and know how to access this application, you are providing them with invaluable resources. More than just an app, Lucero represents a movement towards empowerment, self-discovery, and improved mental health outcomes. Let us unite in this vital mission to support our participants and their families, enabling our youth to unlock their full potential and navigate their recovery path with confidence.
