Best Centers For Mentally Disabled People In Minneapolis Near Me

4worldlovers: It’s no secret children’s mental health is at crisis levels. Barriers to care can make it frustrating for caregivers. That’s where Washburn Center stands up to serve and create access so families get care when it’s most needed.

We help with whatever life serves up. Working with families across a continuum of mental health care to meet a child at any point in their life.

It’s hard to watch a child struggle and a challenge to understand in the heat of a moment. You hold the best insight to your child. Their behavior is communication. Take the first step and take the first step toward healing.

As a community-based mental health care agency, Washburn Center is positioned to meet families and children where they are – and advocate for comprehensive mental health care in Twin Cities communities.

Our mission is unique – and how the work gets funded is equally unique.

Stalled reimbursement rates only cover approximately 60% of the cost of serving children and families. Help us meet the skyrocketing need.
