Description

Help us change the approach to Children's Mental Health.  Approximately one out of every five children in America has a diagnosable mental health disorder.  Mental Health problems in young people are associated with outcomes such as suicide, substance use, inability to live independently, justice involvement, school dropout, economic hardship and physical health problems.

Far too many children and adolescents lack access to needed mental health and substance services.  Less than half of children with mental health problems get treatment, services or support.  Only one in five get treatment from a mental health worker with special training to work with children.

Untreated mental health needs among children and youth affect not only the young person and their family, but also schools, communities, workplaces and the nation as a whole.  These costs are too high to leave the mental health needs of so many America's young people un addressed.
