Plug and Play; Teen Depression Screening; Puerto Rico Resource and Health Fair

Plug and play, Sounds like fun, right? 
It's also serious business for firms hoping to secure a spot with one of the world's biggest start up accelerators.

It's estimated that 1 in 5 teens experiences depression during adolescence.  Now, new screening guidelines aim to keep youngsters from going undiagnosed, and untreated.

Five months after Hurricane Maria devastated Puerto Rico, displaced residents here in Northeast Ohio may find help at an upcoming resource fair.  There is a website that offers help as well.
