Resources for Providers

Healthcare providers play a vital role in supporting the behavioral and mental health of children and adolescents. At Valley Children’s, our goal is to equip you with the resources and tools necessary to provide comprehensive and compassionate care to your young patients.

Understanding behavioral and mental health

As they grow and mature, children and adolescents can experience a variety of behavioral and mental health conditions, including anxiety, depression and ADHD. Early identification and intervention are key to improving outcomes and enhancing the quality of life for these young individuals.
