California Youth Behavioral Health Initiative
We are proud to offer free mental health services to students through the California Youth Behavioral Health Initiative (CYBHI). This statewide program is designed to increase access to care and support the emotional well-being of children and teens—right on campus. To help sustain and grow these services, we may collect insurance information for reimbursement purposes. There is no cost to families, and providing insurance details will not affect your coverage, premiums, or benefits. Services remain completely free to you.
Reach out to us if you have questions or would like to learn more!
