community resources
Health goes beyond medical care. The Community Resource Hub connects you to community services and resources to help your family reach optimal health. Find local services and resources such as health care, job training, food, housing and more. Many of the services and programs are free or reduced cost, and some have eligibility criteria.
The Mental Health Resource Connection program connects patients and families to available mental health services in the community – striving to improve the mental health and wellness of children within our reach. This service is administered by social workers experienced in evaluating pediatric mental health needs and the services required to meet those needs.
If you are interested in a referral to the Mental Health Resource Connection please talk to your child’s primary care provider or by filling out our form to get connected to care. You also can use our mental health resource finder to search for resources in your community.
