The BRAVE Program, started in 2019, helps reduce the stigma around mental health and encourages youth to speak up about their emotional well‑being.
Thanks to Florida House Bill 3517, the program is expanding across the state.
BRAVE provides:
- Care navigation to connect students and families with mental health services
- Technology‑based tools to support mental health
- Support for the whole family, helping address the factors that impact mental health
BRAVE is part of Care Connect, which focuses on making sure students receive the right care, at the right time, in the right place.
