E050123 CHN Depression Care Toolkit

The prevalence of depression and anxiety among children and adolescents has increased over time with primary care providers seeing a large number of patients with mental health needs with limited access to resources and support. In response, a CHN workgroup of primary care clinicians and mental and behavioral health experts collaborated to create a Depression Care Toolkit in 2021. CHN has transformed this toolkit into an on-demand education session.
