Child and Family Guidance Center

Child and family mental health services

Up to age 21

Non-profit outpatient mental health care for children, youth and families, with individual, family and group therapy drawn from evidence-based practices and matched to each child's needs. Child psychiatrists provide evaluation and medication monitoring. The Full Service Partnership offers intensive in-home treatment for high-risk children and youth ages 1-22, with in-home therapy, intensive case management and psychiatric support. School-based services (individual, group and family therapy and classroom consultation) run on elementary, middle and high school campuses in the San Fernando and Antelope Valleys. A crisis program gives short-term intensive treatment, and Community Resource Services provides in-home case management and school advocacy. Enhanced Care Management coordinates care for vulnerable families. Bilingual Spanish/English services include parent education and Medi-Cal enrollment help. A transitional-age program serves older youth and young adults.
