Davis County offering free mental health screenings for youth

DAVIS COUNTY (ABC4) — The Davis County Health Department is offering free mental health screenings for youth ages preschool to sixth grade.

The health department shared the screening is an opportunity for parents and youth to meet with a mental health professional and talk about social and emotional needs, anxiety, depression, trauma, and more.

“Screenings are a simple, confidential way to check in on your child’s emotional well-being. It can help start conversations that lead to resources and support,” said Teresa Smith, the Davis HELPS Coalition Coordinator from the Davis County Health Department.
