Speak with a teen counselorIs there a teen mental illness epidemic in Phoenix?
According to Arizona demographic statistics, Phoenix has more teenagers than any other Arizona city. Phoenix census data indicate that 1, 737 Arizona children are in the juvenile court system, and 70% of them have a mental illness (with 20% battling severe mental illness). In addition, 69% of Arizona teens (14 and older) with severe mental health issues are school dropouts.
More concerning, Mental Health America recently ranked Arizona 38th among the states in mental illness prevalence and 47th for youth access to mental health care, suggesting the state has lots of room for improvement.
Due to the resulting high demand for youth residential treatment centers, Avery’s House is expanding around Phoenix by opening more facilities.
