To solve our mental health crisis, give more children equal access to play

Renata Simril, president & CEO of the LA 84 Foundation and PLAY Sports Coalition board member, wrote a guest column on EdSource, a source of education information, research and analysis.

“Our children need all of us to speak up for greater access and opportunities for school-based and community sports because the road to rebuilding this generation’s emotional and social well-being begins on your local field and playground.”
