Danbury Schools to host mental health forum tonight

The first in a series of forums on adolescent mental health organized by the Danbury School District will be held tonight.  The forums are in response to the suicide of a high schooler last month and an attempt to erase the stigma around mental health.  Superintendent Sal Pascarella says this is part of the best practices they've found in responding to the death of 16-year-old Hailey Nailor at Danbury Mall on February 9th, and the social media posts that followed.  Mental health professionals will help parents address the recent trauma with their children, connect them with service providers and answer parents' specific questions.  The 6pm forum at Danbury High School's new black box theater will also include information from suicide prevention experts.  Additional forums will be organized for students and the general community.
