A new outpatient center for behavioral health services

About 1 of every 20 adults in the U.S. has a serious mental illness, according to the National Institute on Mental Health. An estimated 1 of every 5 children aged 9-17 has a diagnosable mental or addictive disorder, according to the National Alliance on Mental Illness. Of those children diagnosed with a mental disorder, only about 20% receive any treatment for their condition.

While those statistics are alarming, there is a new place where children and adults in Kissimmee can get on the road to recovery.
