Mental Health Referral Service for Children and Teens

Washington’s Mental Health Referral Service for Children and Teens connects families with local mental health providers who fit your child’s needs and insurance coverage. Referrals are made for children and teens aged 17 and younger, and any Washington family can use this free service. Since 2019, the referral service has connected with over 1,800 families across 28 counties in Washington. 

For children and youth in court-ordered dependencies, Coordinated Care is also available for mental health crisis and foster families are encouraged to use this service.
