Support for Your Health Needs
Help Me Grow
Help Me Grow, sponsored by the Children’s Forum and the State of Florida, Division of Early Learning, is a unique, comprehensive, and integrated system that helps identify behavioral health concerns in children. Help Me Grow provides resources for parents of children who are facing behavioral and developmental challenges. By being able to identify behavioral and developmental concerns early, we are able to connect children and their families to local developmental and behavioral services and support.
Parents can explore this resource by completing a free screening from Help Me Grow to help identify possible behavioral and developmental concerns as soon as possible. The screening only takes 10-15 minutes, and it is completely free.
