Released ahead of World Mental Health Day, “Warning Signs & Suicide Prevention” gives parents and caregivers practical tools to recognize early mental health concerns in children and take immediate action.

BOSTON, Oct. 8, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — With one in five U.S. adults and one in seven youth struggling with mental health, early intervention can dramatically alter a young person’s health trajectory and overall life expectancy. Ahead of World Mental Health Day (Oct. 10), WellWithAll, a purpose-led wellness company rooted in making wellness more accessible for all, has today published a free Wellness Guide, “Warning Signs & Suicide Prevention,” a toolkit designed for people to recognize mental health challenges in their loved ones and understand what to do when they need support. The toolkit is part of WellWithAll’s ongoing initiative to make health education accessible to all.

“Suicide is the second leading cause of death among people aged 10 to 24,” said Dr. Kevin Simon, child and adolescent psychiatrist at Boston Children’s Hospital and the City of Boston’s first Chief Behavioral Health Officer. “Recognizing mental health needs in young adults can be difficult as their behavior and emotions evolve. Knowing what to look for helps families start conversations earlier and connect young people with culturally relevant support.” Dr. Simon provided clinical review for the new guide.

The new toolkit builds on WellWithAll’s approach to cultivating generational wellness: giving people the knowledge and motivation to take meaningful steps in their health without having to navigate complicated medical information.

Connecting Mental Health to Physical Health

Recognizing that mental and physical health are deeply interconnected, WellWithAll also connects these resources to its “Know Your Numbers” campaign. The initiative encourages individuals to track key health markers — blood pressure, blood sugar, cholesterol, waist size, resting heart rate and supportive social connections — to build a holistic picture of their well-being. Your numbers are only part of the story; what matters most is what those numbers make possible. Small changes add up. And over time, they can help move your health score and your life in the right direction.

The message is simple: knowing your numbers can help you have earlier, more informed conversations about your health. Just as recognizing a change in mental health can prompt important conversations, understanding changes in key health measurements can encourage people to seek guidance before a potential problem becomes more serious.

“Our goal is to make health information easier to understand and quicker to act on,” said Demond Martin, WellWithAll Co-Founder and CEO. “Families shouldn’t have to wait for a crisis to know something’s off. We want to move this knowledge to the kitchen table, so a parent can spot the signs in their child the same way they’d keep an eye on their own blood pressure. Close the knowledge gap first, and the life expectancy gaps start closing right behind it. Know your numbers, change your life.”

Free Resources for All

The new guide joins WellWithAll’s growing library of free, clinically-reviewed Wellness Guides, created to put practical, research-backed health information within reach of more people. The guides are developed and reviewed by medical professionals and informed lived experiences, offering signs to watch for, questions to consider and potential next steps.

• Are Medications the Right Next Step?: This guide helps you pause, reflect, and make informed choices grounded in care, not fear. Because exploring treatment isn’t about changing who your child is — it’s about helping them feel better, function better, and flourish.

“Ask somebody you love this week ‘Are you good?’, and wait for the real answer,” said Martin. “That one conversation is a health habit, same as any number you track. World Mental Health Day is a good reminder to start there.”
