Young people are under "enormous strain" because of the pandemic, an Oireachtas committee has heard, and urgent changes to support services are needed to avert a "surefire recipe for a mental health disaster".

Ian Power, CEO of SpunOut.ie, Ireland's youth information website, told the sub-committee on mental health that one in five of young people using a free texting service last year had considered taking their own lives.

The National Ambulance Service was mobilised in over 400 cases, because young people were in "real and active and imminent danger", he said.

The text support service had "33,000 support conversations" in 2020, the vast majority of them in the second half of the year.

Supports swells for Chester County high school to drop mascot some consider offensive

ELVERSON, Pa. - A Chester County high school is feeling a strong push to change its mascot that many argue is an offensive characterization of Native Americans. More than 50 people showed up to a meeting Tuesday night and many joined online as Twin Valley High School Senior Arden Wolfe continued her two-year campaign to switch the school's ‘Raider’ mascot. "It just kind of portrays harmful stereotypes of Native Americans," Wolfe said. "I think it is really important to represent Native Americans in a good way and not use people as mascots."She isn't alone, Wolfe has collected thousands of signatures on an online petition that moves to upend the Raider namesake and the imagery associated with it. A Twin Valley High School Senior is leading the charge to get the school's Raider mascot changed.
