How We HELP

Healing children using evidence-based, specialized therapies

1 full-time clinician was added to reduce our waiting list from 4 months to 1 month.
90% of the children with PTSD recovered by the end of CHP’s free evidence-based trauma therapy, resulting in better school performance, less conflict with their families, and more time spent with friends.

15 national experts in diversity on our Cultural Advisory Team were instrumental in our new website to be more inclusive and accessible to underrepresented groups, including racial/ethnic and LGBTQ communities.
500 NYC children, nearly 50% of whom are families of color, participated in a study of the mental health impact of COVID-19. Prior trauma was the strongest predictor of severity of PTSD, anxiety, depression, and behavior problems. Results have been presented to local leaders and submitted for publication.

4,300 professionals were trained on state-of-the-art trauma care that will help tens of thousands of children as part of the federal National CHP grant deploying our model of school-family-mental health collaboration for traumatized children in Nevada, North Dakota, South Dakota, Michigan, Maryland, and South Carolina.
7 papers were authored by the CHP team and presented at national conferences.
430 supervisors nationwide accessed Dr. Brown’s chapter on supervision of therapists doing trauma treatment.

182 parents and 160 children attended Keeping Every Youth Safe (KEYS), the CHP designed workshop to prevent abuse and bullying.
