Assessment Questions

Parents of youth from birth to age 17:  Please answer the assessment questions about your child needing help and your family to help us understand your needs.  Your answers will help us connect you to recommendations for services/programs to help you.  The questions are based on an assessment created by the American Psychiatric Association, and it is called the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual V Level 1 Cross-Cutting Symptom Measure. Other questions are added to find out more about your child and family.  After completing the questions, you will see a screen listing all the services that might help you.  You may choose the ones you want to try.  If you would like more options than your list, please click on Refine the search. The questions you have answered (assessment) will be sent to those agencies you select.   Once you have selected the agency (or agencies) with whom you would like to work with, a representative from that agency will contact you to discuss next steps and schedule your first appointment. This may take a couple of days.

If you feel like you need help for yourself or your child right away (if someone is talking about killing themselves or others for example), please call 211 to talk to a counselor or you can text #741741. There is always someone to talk to even in the middle of the night.  If you or your child is currently in a medical crisis, please call 911.

Adults ages 18 and older: Please answer the assessment questions to help us understand what you need, and we will then connect you to recommendations for services/programs to help you.  The questions are based on an assessment created by the American Psychiatric Association, and it is called the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual V Level 1 Cross-Cutting Symptom Measure. Other questions are added to find out more about you.  After completing the questions, you will see a screen listing all the services that might help you. If you would like more options than your list, please Refine your search.
