Children’s Mental Health
Our newly launched Children’s mental health program is designed to support the most vulnerable children in our community. Many of these families face complex challenges, including financial instability, housing insecurity, food insecurity, clothing insecurity, and limited access to healthcare. By focusing on at-risk children, we aim to create lasting change that enables them to thrive academically and in life. We are currently serving children from families already utilizing services at Seton Center, as well as community partnerships extending this programming to other youth in need.
