So, here’s a question for you… What do children's museums have to do with mental health? It's easy to think there isn't much of a connection, but you'd be surprised! Mental health services can be difficult for some families to access, particularly in underserved communities. Children's museums, though, can be a non-traditional way to expand this access, which can, in turn, contribute to improving the mental health and wellness of a community. If you're interested in learning more about this, take a look at this webinar from the Aspen Institute.
