About our client:

Our client is home to many specialized clinical services. We lead the way in working with children who struggle with behavioral, emotional, educational, intellectual, and developmental challenges or may have experienced trauma.

We treat the whole child, looking at more than a single issue so we can provide the best, most comprehensive integrated care. We examine barriers in the home, school, and community, working with the family who raises them and the organizations that support them.

Our vision reflects our community's changing needs for providing care and our evolving position as a leading authority on children's mental and behavioral health: To champion the never-ending quest for providing the best care, helping children learn to self-advocate once they're outside the comfort of our walls, and get them on the road to a happier, more fulfilling childhood.
