Maine State data highlights that a significant percentage of young people suffer from anxiety, depression, and feeling of loneliness. This can lead to a conviction that they don’t matter to their community. Maine Resilience Building Network (MRBN) Executive Director Kini-Ana Tinkham, R.N., will invite participants to collectively learn and discuss ways to enhance mattering  in our communities. 

 Kini (she/her) Kini works to improve the health and well-being of children, families, and communities by advancing the MRBN mission through partnerships, professional development, and advocacy.
