Tour: Children and mental health at Clarity

Time:
Monday, October 31st, 1:00 pm to 3:00 pm
Location:
Buses depart from Omni

Where have all the beds for mental health gone? Why has care moved to the prison system and the streets for the homeless? Come see a unique facility and approach to mental health care for children ages 3-17. Clarity Child Guidance Center is staffed with the largest group of child & adolescent mental health professionals in the region, and offers hospitalization, day treatment and outpatient therapy for nearly 9,000 kids each year. Visit the eight-acre camp-like setting and learn about an innovative approach to care, called ClaritycareTM and how Play with PurposeTM is integrated into the treatment plans. Clarity Child Guidance Center is one of only a handful of organizations across the nation providing these services and is a teaching partner and research facility for the local medical school. Debunk the myths around mental illness and change the conversation by learning from our experts.
