Child and Adolescent Mental Health

a. Who we are

Child and Adolescent Mental Health functions as an administrative unit which is responsible for the oversight of publicly funded mental health services for the youth and families residing in Delaware County.

Child and Adolescent Mental Health collaborates with a Managed Care Organization to contract with local licensed mental health programs. In partnership with the Managed Care Organization, we provide oversite and support to these mental health programs in their efforts to engage individuals and families in safe and clinically prescribed mental health treatment and supportive services.

Services and resources provided reflect Delaware County System of Care principles, recovery, resilience, and self-determination. Our goal is to ensure access to high quality mental health services and supports and help develop programs to fill any gaps in these services.
