Mental Health

Children’s Mental Health is an issue closely tied to the topics of learning differences, autism and special needs. Kids with differences are at high risk for emotional and mental health issues. And, some conditions, like ADHD, Dyslexia and other neurolgically-based disabilities fall under the Mental Health category when it comes to identification and treatment.
