Children, Youth and Families
The Children’s Division provides a comprehensive system of care for youth experiencing emotional, behavioral, or substance use difficulties in their life, as well as education and support for family members. We offer over 12 programs for youth ages 0 to 18 (or up to age 21 if still in school) and their families through a continuum of services including psychiatry, mental health counseling, substance use counseling, family counseling, case management, respite and case aid services, school-based services, behavioral consultation services, summer therapeutic programs, crisis response and emergency respite services, CUPS – a mental health program for young children up to six years old, and JOBS – an employment assistance program for youth in transition who have significant emotional disturbances.
In addition to providing comprehensive services for youth and families in our three outpatient locations, we work in collaboration with early childhood services, and we provide school-based clinicians, interventionists, and/or student assistance counselors to 28 public and alternative schools. Services are provided in the home, in the community, and in the schools.
