CHS is leading the way in using innovation to make a bigger impact in the lives of children and families, especially those who are struggling with life’s challenges. Not only do we offer top counseling services to children, teens, adults and families, but now we also offer telehealth services – and we are the only statewide nonprofit in Florida that offers this innovative solution!

Piloted in fall of 2016, our telehealth component has quickly expanded so we may provide the highest level care to those least likely to receive it.

Here’s the sad reality: Children in Florida who receive Medicaid typically have to wait several months to receive an appointment with a psychiatrist – a critically important part of treatment for kids who are suffering.

But CHS is changing that.

Now, kids can receive that appointment in less than 7 days!

This is truly life changing for children.

We currently have an extensive list of offices and physicians – from Pensacola to Miami – who are linked with this program, and we’re adding new providers and increasing access for kids every day! 

We’ll soon expand our reach even further as we add telehealth counseling services throughout the state and telehealth Autism assessment and treatment services for children enrolled in our Early Steps programs.

Through strategic partnerships with major universities and insurance companies , healing reach will extend further than ever as our counselors reach kids at the right time to make the biggest impact.
