We believe healing happens in community.

That's why we're working to be more than a place people come for services—we want to be a trusted partner for children, teens, families, and caregivers throughout life's challenges and milestones.

From early support to comprehensive behavioral health treatment and recovery, we're here to walk alongside families every step of the way.

For Mental Health Awareness Month, we are looking at behavior differently.

Our Substance Screening, Treatment, and Recovery for Youth (SSTRY) Program Manager, Leanne Des Rosiers, notes that many “behaviors” are actually survival skills children use to adapt to hardship.

At The Children’s Center of Hamden, we don't judge; we provide the resources to move from surviving to thriving.
