CT Mirror article on children's mental health and pediatric primary care

 

CHDI's Lisa Honigfeld was quoted in the November 12, 2015 CT Mirror article, "Post -Newtown program helps children get mental health."  The article addressed how Connecticut's Access Mental Health initiative is supporting pediatricians. 

“This is a phenomenal resource,” said Lisa Honigfeld, vice president for health initiatives at the Child Health and Development Institute, who previously worked with practices to expand their capacity to care for children with anxiety and depression. While many became willing to take on more responsibility, Honigfeld said, “At some point they all said, ‘I need some backup; I need somebody I can call and talk this through with.’”
