Abstract

Mental health concerns in pediatrics patients have been rising since before the pandemic. There are a number of barriers to pediatric patients getting the mental healthcare they need. One of these relates to help-seeking behaviors, where children and families who don't have the right awareness of resources available to them may not be able to seek the care required. This project aimed to create a smartphrase that provides pediatric patients and families with a list of resources for finding a counselor/therapist, mental health crisis resources and other community resources both within Chittenden County and other VT counties, and links to resources about how parents can support their children's brain health at home.
