We've talked a lot about evidence. I think one of the major root causes we look at through evidence is the underlying link to mental health and mental illness. We can see from psychological autopsies after the fact that for a large proportion of young people who die by suicide, there was either diagnosed or undiagnosed mental illness. So part of the solution has to be addressing our mental health care system, particularly for children and youth.
From the young people I talk to, there's a lost generation right now that is incredibly disengaged. They don't find education giving them a vocational path that makes sense. They're sold a bill of goods that going to university will solve all their problems. They don't go to colleges that might provide them with the skills necessary to make a meaningful contribution. They're stuck in this holding pattern with no real, good skills to cope with that.
When we look at young people in a holistic way, and at how we can engage them in meaningful ways in terms of their lives and their communities, that can really make a dent. It has impacts on education, on vocational and family life, and on everything you could possibly describe. Looking at it on an individual level, in terms of the possibility of illness being present and treating it, but also engaging in different ways and supporting life paths that make more sense, I think those would have the biggest yield.
