This featured JOSH article explored how socioecological supports are related to adolescent multi-victimization, with particular attention to transgender and gender-diverse adolescents (TGDA). Survey data from 4,207 students across 13 high schools in a mid-sized U.S. city were used to compare victimization rates and socioecological support levels, such as parental monitoring, perceived social support, food and housing security, and associations between socioecological support and victimization.

The American Academy of Pediatrics and Nationwide Children’s Hospital are excited to launch a national learning community focused on implementing The Burrow Blueprint: Advancing Primary Care Mental Health in Schools. Developed by Nationwide Children’s Hospital with support from The Joe Burrow Foundation, this innovative resource supports school health professionals in strengthening mental health care for students nationwide.

Participants will engage in five dynamic, peer-to-peer learning sessions—beginning with a kickoff call in September 2026—alongside flexible, self-paced exploration of Burrow Blueprint modules. This collaborative experience offers practical tools, shared learning, and meaningful connections with peers across the country.

Registration is open to all; however, priority will be given to school-based health center primary care providers. Register for the learning community here: https://us06web.zoom.us/meeting/register/dTIN0sUQQ4OSdzf0hs7kaQ #/registration
