Children's Behavioral Health Resource Center

2024

University of New Hampshires Institute on Disability (IOD) will develop a new Technical Assistance Center for the Children's System of Care. Working in collaboration with other institutions, family groups, providers and youth and families, the TA Center will strengthen the network of behavioral health supports for children across the state. The new center is designed to help address the current shortage of resources by improving the capacity of providers, educators and agencies to deliver high-quality, research-based practices across the state. The center will focus on providing evidence-based training, technical assistance, easy-to-access information about strengths-based and youth-centered practices and approaches to best address the behavioral health needs of children up to the age of 21 years. The TA Center is a collaboration between the IOD and UNHs Institute for Health Policy and Practice (IHPP), the Behavioral Health Improvement Institute (BHII) at Keene State College, and the Geisel School of Medicine at Dartmouth College.
