    WHY THESE SERVICES

    • Every year 1 in 5 children experience a mental health issue. However studies have shown that only 1 in every 5 children that need services actually receive them.
    • Early disruptions in emotional development and relationships can have long-standing negative consequences.
    • The rate of emotional and behavioral problems among homeless children is three times the rate of non-homeless children. By age 5, 40% of homeless children will develop a mental health issue.
    • Disadvantaged children are at greater risk of abuse, intergenerational violence, mental health and health issues, academic difficulties, and increased stress in their living situations.
