In response to the COVID-sparked mental health crisis, France will offer free therapy to all citizens aged three and older starting in 2022. YPulse’s State of Mind trend report found that 54% of 13-39-year-olds in the U.S. say their mental health has been negatively impacted by the pandemic, leading to an increase in the number of young people seeking professional mental health and mental health alternatives—56% of young people reported speaking to a mental health professional in 2020 compared to 41% in 2017. France has seen a similar pattern. According to a survey conducted by the government, 10% of French citizens had suicidal thoughts between March 2020 and March 2021—double the usual number. The initiative will offer free therapy to those who cannot afford it on their own in hopes of boosting France’s overall mental health. (World Economic Forum)
