As recognized experts in early childhood mental health, The Children’s Center Utah provides mental health care for over 1,200 children ages 0-6 annually.  We are inviting local businesses to join the movement and open the door to spread awareness about children’s mental health.

May is National Mental Health Awareness Month and presents an opportunity to raise awareness about Utah infants, toddlers, and preschoolers who experience mental health challenges such as depression, anxiety, or trauma.

We are looking for organizations, local businesses, and community leaders like you to strengthen further early childhood mental health and its many positive outcomes for our state.
