Campaign for America's Kids
America has a mental health crisis that affects 15 million children and teenagers, with one in five having a diagnosable mental or emotional disorder. Tragically, only 20% of those who suffer receive treatment. In response to this epidemic, The American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry (AACAP) has launched The Campaign for America's Kids.
The Campaign's purpose is to ensure that children and adolescents can get easy access to the mental health services they need. Untreated emotional and mental disorders shatter lives, families and dreams. Our goal is nothing less than “Mental Health for ALL Children”. Mental illnesses are so common, so urgent and so treatable. Please join us to ensure that all our kids get the help they deserve to lead full, happy and productive lives.
