The US is experiencing an unprecedented crisis in children's mental health. This crisis began before COVID, and has only gotten worse since 2020.

Today, 1 in 5 children experience a diagnosable mental health condition. Of the millions of kids that are in need of care, less than 20% recieve the treatment they need, primarily due to access. Finding a professional to help a child in need of mental healthcare is a daunting task for the vast majority of parents that generally includes months long waits for appointments. Those in rural areas, and in underserved urban communitites are at even greater risk, with ZERO professionals available.

The REACH Insitute works tirelessly each day to address this problem. By training more primary care providers, those on the front lines of healthcare for kids, we are extending the network of professional care to help support our youngest generations. The REACH Institute's work is critical to reducing the numbers of teen suicide, the increasing rates of substance abuse, and the cripiling effects of untreated depression and anxiety in kids.
