Children's Mental Health Initiative

Description:

Serving Fargo, ND and neighboring rural counties in North Dakota and Minnesota, this children's mental health initiative provides screening, early intervention and prevention services, along with community education and resources. While waiting to see their pediatrician, parents of children ages 6 months to 5 years will be offered a new hand-held, user-friendly electronic device to answer the well-proven Ages and Stages Questionnaire-SE. Elevated scores on this diagnostic tool indicate possible socio-emotional difficulties or developmental concerns. These children will be referred for further evaluation, consultation and care.
