Youth, Young Adult, & Family Behavioral Health Care Coordination
Youth and young adult care coordination connects families dealing with behavioral health challenges to resources and referrals in the community that meet their needs.
Care Coordination services empower families to achieve positive outcomes through a structured, family-centered process. Children between the ages of 4 and 18 who are in the public mental health system may access care coordination services. For more information, use this referral form:
