Mental Health Assessment - this component to detennine a child's level of risk for safety to others and self, level of intervention needed and mental health diagnosis. This is a valuable resource to school districts, Department of Human Services and our clients. We have Psychologists on staff who provide this service. . Resource Library - with over 6000 media resources with a large focus on children's mental health, which is open to client and public use. . Crisis Intervention - The Child Center has teamed up with two other agencies, Looking Glass and Jasper Mountain, to provide 2417 child and youth mental health crisis intervention covering all of Lane County. Staff provide phone consultation and, if needed, go out to wherever the crisis event is occurring to help resolve the situation. . Parent Education Classes - Three levels of training are available, all based on the evidenced-based Collaborative Problem Solving Model. Five week session are provided throughout the year. This is a family-based training, with children attending activities on campus while parents are in session. They all take a break to have dinner together in the cafeteria. With each programmatic addition, more staff were hired, existing buildings on campus were added on to and remodeled, and the property next door was purchased. We have now reached critical mass! We have run out of office space! The solution is to build an office building that will accommodate these programs and give us room to continue to grow to meet the mental health needs of the children of Lane County. To date, with the generosity of many in our community, about 40% of the $1,400,000 capital project has been raised. ~ome I abo!!!.the ~hild ~ntE2I 1I:l.o_~Id_9t(jjr.e~.toIs (:l'rogra~ l.outQatient I crisis services I ~y treatment.1 assessl)1ent _G_ollab.oIatiy:e_PIOble_!IL~_olv:iQg I [E!_so.L1rc::eJi~rary. ~pl~~~mp~ajgn..~ I ~ommunity giving human resources I jobs I workshoRs & training r activities calendar I volunteer social networking web site designed and maintained by f!ying Ink Media http://thechildcenter.org/ capital_ campaigns.html 3/2912010
