Ken Burns is executive producer of a documentary by colleagues Eric and Christopher Ewers that takes a very personal approach to the growing health crisis among youths living with mental illness. The two-part film (concluding Tuesday) features first-person accounts from 21 young people with diverse backgrounds, including a Native American whose sense of isolation has led to thoughts of suicide and a transgender teen who turns to substance abuse. The special offers insights from parents, teachers and healthcare providers.
