New Program Aims to Improve Mental Health Treatment for Kids

By Elizabeth Christensen

Oswego, NY – WRVO's Elizabeth Christensen speaks to St. Joseph's hospital's Mary Bishop about a new program that trains pediatricians to look for signs of mental illness in children... and how to help parents seek treatment.

Recent cuts to federal funding are challenging our mission to serve central and upstate New York with trusted journalism, vital local coverage, and the diverse programming that informs and connects our communities. This is the moment to join our community of supporters and help keep journalists on the ground, asking hard questions that matter to our region.

Stand with public media and make your gift today—not just for yourself, but for all who depend on WRVO as a trusted resource and civic cornerstone in central and upstate New York.
