When necessary, Mental Health Center of Denver (MHCD) provides psychiatric care for clients of DCAC. We also partner with MHCD to provide early childhood mental health consultation for child care centers and other providers that work with children ages 0-5.
DCAC’s mental health specialists work with community partners to provide home visits, onsite assessments, training for professionals, and referrals for mental health treatment. By intervening at the earliest possible time, we can improve outcomes for the infants, while also providing therapy for the mothers’ untreated trauma.
DCAC diversifies its approach to community engagement by partnering with a variety of community agencies that provide a wide range of services. By working together, we can expand our access to families who may not otherwise know of the services we provide to children and their families.
