Redefining how we support mental health in Central Texas

Debbie Cohen, PhD shares the need to redefine how we support mental health in Central Texas.

After more than 10 years, my early work experience has pushed me to change our current community mental health system to better meet the needs of young adults. Through a partnership of a number of similarly compelled colleagues, we have established the Center for Youth Mental Health housed within the University of Texas at Austin Dell Medical School Department of Psychiatry. The goal of the Center is to implement, evaluate and research new ideas that support transition-age youth with a mental illness to become healthy, productive independent adults.
