Wisconsin Child Psychiatry Consultation Program
The goal of the Wisconsin Child Psychiatry Consultation Program (WI CPCP) is to improve mental health care for children in the state of Wisconsin by providing education, consultative support, and resource support from child psychiatrists, pediatric psychologists, and resource personnel. With this support, primary care providers are able to offer timely, quality mental health care to children and adolescents with mild-to-moderate mental and behavioral health concerns.
The Wisconsin Child Psychiatry Consultation Program bases its support to primary care providers on three pillars:
