ChildMind.org - Education section
"Millions of children – as many as 1 in 5 – struggle with mental health or learning challenges. 70% of U.S. counties have no child and adolescent psychiatrists. Due to stigma, misinformation, and a lack of access to care, the average time between the onset of symptoms and any treatment is over eight years. Our children deserve better. That’s why the Child Mind Institute was created. We’re dedicated to transforming the lives of children and families struggling with mental health and learning disorders by giving them the help they need. We’ve become the leading independent nonprofit in children’s mental health by providing gold-standard evidence-based care, delivering educational resources to millions of families yearly, training educators in underserved communities, and developing tomorrow’s breakthrough treatments. Together, we truly can transform children’s lives."
