BHT services are provided to children diagnosed with a psychiatric condition and who present with significant social, emotional, developmental or behavioral problems.

A primary goal of the service is to build competencies that will allow the child to become more successful in their social, family and community settings.

The interventions provided by the BHT may be in the form of therapeutic, supportive and competency/skill building and vary in method/modalities. These services will take place within various settings, including in the home, community or school settings.
