According to the NIMH, one in five children are diagnosed with a mental disorder. A Harvard Medical School study found that suicide rates among boys and girls 15-19 years increased 21% and 8% respectively from 2016-2017. With such alarming statistics related to adolescent mental health, access to care should not be the problem. However, that was exactly the case in Western Texas.
