Established in 2002

The Children’s Mental Health Collaborative was formed in 2002 to improve mental health services for children and youth in Dane County.  Formation of the collaborative was motivated by increasing awareness nationally and locally of a serious concern for children’s mental health services. 

The Collaborative is a diverse group of stakeholders (school district administrators, mental health manager, school staff, funders, providers, etc.) who have come together to more effectively address the mental health needs of our children.
​
​In addition to the large group collaborative meetings, there are three subcommittees that have been formed to focus on specific areas of change: Advocacy, Best Practices, and Continuum of Care.
