Child and Adolescent Mental Health Program

As the Local Mental Health Authority in the El Paso area, Emergence Health Network (EHN) is dedicated to helping residents with their behavioral health needs. Often it’s the youth in our community who need help coping with life challenges. Through EHN services such as our Child and Adolescent Mental Health Program (ChAMHPs) teens along with their families can get the help they need.

”I feel that it has helped me learn that my diagnosis does not define me, but instead it is something that I have been able to manage,” said Angel Drake. “My biggest challenge had been controlling my anger. I would get mad fast towards my grandma and with my brother. I have learned to apply my coping skills, but before these skills, I would react physically aggressive and would punch and kick walls in my house.” Angel’s mom says the services at ChAMHPs have actually helped their entire family. “Before the services, there would be constant arguments within the family and things could be physical. This is a great program that cares for the kids and the families and does not place judgment.”

IDD/START Program

Emergence Health Network has a wide array of services to offer those in our community with Intellectual/Developmental Disabilities (IDD) The START (Systemic, Therapeutic, Assessment, Resources, and Treatment) program, for instance, has helped divert dozens of EHN clients from a psychiatric hospital and provided them with more appropriate treatment to assist them in living stable, productive, independent lives.

Bianca Garcia has experienced many challenges, but now thanks to the START Program, life is looking up. “It has given me a better quality of life and taught me how to manage my life and given me a chance to be more productive,” said Bianca. Her mom says she has also seen an improvement. “Since I’ve been here, I have been given guidance, hope, and the tools to help me and my daughter. The EHN staff has gone far and beyond to help us. I have no words to express my thanks to everyone at EHN. It has benefited me a lot.” The EHN START Team goes through extensive training to learn how to strengthen systems linkages, fill service gaps for IDD consumers and recognizes the cause behind the behavior. Most importantly, they work to prevent unnecessary hospital stays.
