Mental Health Resources for Children and Caregivers

A couple weeks ago I shared a great resource list of nonfiction for teens regarding mental health.  This week, I was pleased to find that Kaitlin Frick over at the ALSC Blog has shared a great compilation of websites and books "to assist young people and their caregivers in recognizing and dealing with mental health conditions".  Websites of note include the Child Mind Institute and the National Alliance on Mental Illness.  The book list includes The Rabbit Listened (Cori Doerrfeld) and The Goldfish Boy (Lisa Thompson).  These resources can help young patrons gain a better understanding of mental health conditions and assist their caregivers with early recognition and support.

Check out the post and all the great resources HERE.
