Washburn Center for Children delivers transformative mental health care to children and families in the greater Twin Cities. We have a diverse continuum of care and treat children from ages 0-18. There are no barriers for those who receive our care. We meet clients where they are: at home, in school, on playgrounds and in clinic. Our 175 therapists supported 4,269 clients last year through our early childhood, intensive in-home and crisis programs, school-based and outpatient therapeutic programs. Our Case Management program connects families with the resources needed to support their lives. Learn more at washburn.org
