Rogers Memorial Hospital, a specialty provider of behavioral health treatment services is partnering with area organizations like Mental Health America of Wisconsin and Wisconsin Family Ties to help provide resources for parents and children. In light of recently publicized news stories, it’s important to remember that these organizations are available to help children and families who have been impacted by tragedy. Children or adults with existing mental health concerns can be triggered by these events and those who have displayed symptoms may do so in this context.
