The Arthur Blank Foundation has announced a $25 million investment in several organizations dedicated to supporting youth mental health and emotional well-being.

The commitment, as part of the foundation’s national Mental Health & Well-Being grantmaking strategy, builds on a portfolio of $31 million that the nonprofit has given since 2022 to support youth mental health.

According to the foundation, the organization’s primary goal is to support the development of young people through three crucial periods — infancy, childhood and adolescence.
