As a child and adolescent mental health advocate, meeting policymakers and politicians is an important piece of the work I do. 

Last week I was invited to meet with An Taoiseach, Micheál Martin, to discuss his government’s response to the global health crisis of Covid-19 and the impact it has had on the mental health of the people of this country.
