Emotional, social and behavioral challenges can be overwhelming and difficult to understand. Our innovative Cameron K. Gallagher Mental Health Resource Center serves as a hub for support, referrals and encouragement every step of the way.
Our family navigators help you understand the mental health options available for children and can help you in finding therapists, psychiatrists or other appropriate services. Our model uses the valuable experiences of others who have navigated the mental health system, providing one-on-one support and referral assistance to families across Virginia.
Important note for health care providers: VMAP has launched! CMHRC no longer processes referrals from providers. Health care providers can access similar services, including mental health resources, care navigation and immediate psychiatry consults via VMAP.
We help families navigate and access services in Virginia by serving as the community’s go-to resource for accurate, essential information on children’s mental health and evidence-based practices.
CMHRC is not a clinical program. We assist families in understanding the mental health services available in their community and link them to appropriate resources and care.
Families can call us to speak with a family navigator, free of charge.
