About This Program
As a part of the Texas Child Mental Health Consortium, our child and adolescent psychiatry fellowship is supported by legislative initiatives designed to improve access to mental health care for the young people of East Texas. Participation in the consortium also allows us to partner with the other Texas Medical Schools to provide consultation and direct services to primary care providers, school districts, and local mental health authorities.
