Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page for the Child Mind Institute. Whether you can give a buck or fifty, every bit is much appreciated!

"Over 17 million American children suffer from a psychiatric disorder — more than the number of children affected by leukemia, diabetes and AIDS combined. The challenges are enormous, but our work is transformative. Our clinical care, scientific research and public information and advocacy campaigns have lasting impact...

The key to helping children who struggle with mental health and learning disorders is to advance our understanding of the developing brain. When we have a picture of how the brain develops and communicates among regions, we will be able to better identify when it isn’t working properly. Creating a “map” of the brain and its connections will open up the treatment of childhood mental health disorders to the full power of scientific innovation.

Our teams work every day to deliver the highest standards of care, advance the science of the developing brain and empower parents, professionals and policymakers to support children when and where they need it most."
