Responding to Children in Crisis

Approximately 1 in 5 children experience a diagnosable mental illness each year, but only 20% receive adequate treatment. Learn to identify the early warning signs of mental illness in children and how to offer immediate support. Discuss what resources are needed once the crisis has passed and explore strategies for fostering a supportive home environment. Empower yourself with the tools to navigate crises with confidence and care in this one-hour seminar with a licensed therapist.
