Mental Health Resources, Children and Youth
According to the U.S. Surgeon General, the United States has experienced a significant increase in mental health disorders in youth, including depression, anxiety, and suicidal ideation.
As a result, the ADM Board works closely with a variety of partners to ensure that Summit County children, youth, and their loved ones have support and resources when they need them.
Mental health conditions are real, and they are treatable. Here, parents, youth, and loved ones will find resources for children and youth who need mental health support.
