Services for Children and Families

The clinic is designed for families with a wide range of parenting concerns. Some parents come to our program with questions about how to handle the daily challenges of child-rearing; others are seeking treatment for a child with severe behavioral problems. Whether your child is displaying severe aggression and violent behaviors or is simply refusing to do chores when asked, the Parenting Center and Child Conduct Clinic can help.
