What to do when there’s a behavioral health concern

Mental health and substance use are closely linked. If you’ve noticed certain changes in your child’s behavior or feelings, it could be a sign that something is wrong.

Behavioral Health Toolkit

Behavioral Health Toolkit

This toolkit from our friends at the Society for the Prevention of Teen Suicide and the YMCA provides guidance for parents and caregivers navigating this difficult terrain. It provides examples of warning signs, outlines what you can expect during a behavioral health evaluation, and offers a helpful overview of the different treatment methods available to you and your family.

With your help, we can empower change.

Support our mission to increase access to recovery, prevention, and mental health resources for everyone who needs them.
