As we wrap up another school year with our school partners who host REDgen Chapters, we want to extend our heartfelt gratitude to our REDgen Advisors, Peer Leaders, and school administrators. Together, you are creating school communities rooted in care, connection,and belonging—spaces where help-seeking is normalized and open conversations about mental well-being can truly thrive.

As students head into summer, we are grateful for the foundation you’ve built—one that continues to support connection, resilience, and well-being beyond the school year and into the months ahead.

We look ahead to the next school year with a deep sense of hope and momentum—knowing that together, we are not just continuing this work, but expanding it, strengthening it, and shaping school communities where every student feels seen, supported, and empowered to thrive.

Summer break provides teens a vital opportunity to recover from school-related stress, allowing them time to recharge emotionally and mentally. Bosley suggests several practical ways to help teens and families maximize summer’s mental health benefits, including:

1. Stick to structure
Regular routines around sleep, meals, and screen time help maintain emotional balance. While summer allows for more flexibility, predictability still plays an important role in supporting well-being.

2. Talk it out
Summer can create space for more open and meaningful conversations. Take time to check in, listen, and connect without the usual time pressures of the school year.

3. Get moving
Daily movement—such as walking, swimming, or spending time outdoors—supports mental health and overall well-being.

4. Start early
For teens preparing for transitions like high school or college, summer is a great time to reflect, set goals, and explore new interests.

5. Know when to seek support
It’s normal for teens to want alone time, but noticeable changes in behavior, sleep, or interests may signal the need for additional support from a mental health professional.
