Provides important information, insights, and practical tips on kids’ mental health for families and professionals. The Family Resource Center has tons of information and resources on topics including ADHD, autism, anxiety, behavior problems, depression, OCD, gender identity, family issues, trauma, suicide, and more. The Symptom Checker analyzes your answers to give a list of psychiatric or learning disorders associated with those behaviors/symptoms (Note: this tool cannot diagnose your child, but it can help inform you of possible diagnoses to help you learn about them and facilitate a conversation with a professional). The website houses resources for teachers, pediatricians, and other professionals, and is also available in Spanish.
