Unpacking the Quiet Crisis: The Gap in Access to Pediatric Mental Health Care
event description
Right now, 1 in 10 children in the U.S. aren’t getting the mental health care they need. Even though half of all mental health disorders begin before age 14, children’s mental health remains one of the most inaccessible and under-resourced areas of health care in America.
That’s why we created The Quiet Crisis, a movement to shine a light on the growing gap in access to mental health care for kids during Mental Health Awareness Month this May.
Join Rebecca Egger, CEO, and Dr. Helen Egger, Chief Medical & Scientific Officer of Little Otter, for a conversation about what’s at stake for our children, and how we can build a future where every family has access to the care they deserve.
This conversation will:
- Uncover the “Why”: Small children have mental health disorders at the same rate as adults but they're not getting the care they need.
- Center the Family Experience: How are kids and parents navigating this crisis.
- Share Hope and Progress: Hear how Little Otter’s innovative model has helped over 4,000 families, delivering higher remission rates than the national standard.
