OUR MISSION: To provide to children and their families comprehensive mental health, evaluation, treatment, and prevention services, which promote optimal levels of functioning in home, school and community.

At the Child Guidance Center of Mid-Fairfield County we help children and their families recover from the trauma of behavioral health conditions affecting their quality of life. The children we work with are often the most at-risk and behaviorally challenged youth in our community. Since 1956, the Center has provided comprehensive behavioral health care to tens of thousands of children and their families. We provide (in both English and Spanish) a full range of prevention and treatment services to address virtually every facet of a child’s psychological, behavioral and emotional health. Our goal is to keep children and families healthy, functional, and at home, school and in the community  in order to avoid out of home placement.

We help children overcome behavioral and mental health challenges such as aggression, anger, frustration, depression, poor peer relationships,  and other behaviors which put them at risk.   The Center teaches coping strategies to assist children in making positive choices,  graduating from school, and fostering harmonious family relationships.

The Center’s services are available to everyone without regard to physical or mental abilities, gender, ethnicity or ability to pay.
