Bridging Borders: Community Partnerships to Support Mental Health among Immigrant Children

Home / Projects / Bridging Borders: Community Partnerships to Support Mental Health among Immigrant Children

The BridgeUM Team has embarked on a journey to improve the provision and use of trauma-informed mental health services by UMs in the greater Houston area by:

  1. Conducting an in-depth needs assessment of the access to mental health services for UMs; and
  2. Building a collaborative coalition of key healthcare partners to begin to tackle this wicked problem.

The primary strategies are to create a local network, create a replicable clinic model, and provide follow-up care to UM’s.
