NYS Office of Mental Health: Information for Children, Teens and Their Families

Emotional health matters for children and teens. It can affect their educational development and ability to connect with friends and family. Emotional health can also affect their ability to cope with life's setbacks.

In New York, we offer a range of services to help you to identify emotional health needs and to provide treatment or support.  The earlier you know that your child has an emotional health need, the sooner you can act.  It is a fact that children can and do recover from even the most serious emotional disturbances.
