What is Behavioral Health Day Services?

The Behavioral Health Day Services program is a team-based model designed for children and adolescents ages 7-17 with emotional or behavioral disturbances that prohibit them from functioning successfully in the home or within a community environment (school/daycare) setting. 

You have the option of choosing in-person at our Fort Myers-Metro office or enjoying flexibility of our new virtual program.
