Changing Lives Through Education and Intervention
Half of all adult mental health disorders begin in childhood. Through early intervention and by teaching effective strategies to parents and educators, not only can we help with youth mental health, but we can also prevent most mental health issues in adulthood. Watch the video to learn how we are making an impact in our community.
We're thrilled to be a part of FIU's newest chapter with the Next Horizon campaign.
