S1: You know what I mean ? But do you think in any way that social media has helped provide youth with the vocabulary to articulate what it is that they're experiencing , leading to maybe getting the care that they need ? Yeah. S1: So you're finding a lot of success ? Yes. Excellent. I want to bring in Nicole Kircher. Um , her son Lucas , is six years old , and they're part of this program with Rady Children's. Um , Nicole , can you tell us a little bit about your son Lucas and what led your family to become a part of this program ? Yeah.

S1: Right. And I want to talk to you a bit more because you mentioned stigma earlier. How much does that play in here ? Um , often there are a lot of parents who don't want the stigma of a diagnosis , um , on their child and maybe delay care. Um , but this , this makes it so accessible. And , um , and you go through the process of educating parents before they even leave the office. Um , talk a bit about that. Sure.

S1: Well , now that that you've got this program going , do you have any advice for parents on how to make sure that their kids stay in good mental health ? Um hum , um hum. S1: All right. I've been speaking with Nicole Kircher , a parent whose child is being cared for at Rady Children's Hospital.
