Children’s Aid provides behavioral health services in school-based and community health centers to help children cope with emotional problems so they can thrive in school and in life.
When behavioral health care is available, children and adolescents can build a solid foundation to realize their potential. We help them navigate their lives as part of our commitment to strong families and communities.
Making behavioral health accessible
Children’s Aid is licensed by the State of New York, and we provide kids and families with confidential individual and family counseling or group therapy.
So many factors can have a powerful impact on children's well-being: parents’ financial worries, unaddressed ADHD, fear of deportation, or the overarching stresses of poverty and acclimating to a new country. We help young people focus on their potential instead.
We also provide crisis intervention and emergency assessments for children and adolescents suffering from abuse, trauma, or serious emotional disturbance.
