The cost is reasonable and the content addresses a wide range of issues that pertain to families facing mental illness and behavioral challenges in their children. The Wisconsin Department of Health and Family Services estimates that close to 90,000 Wisconsin children are affected by these disorders.  We all know the value of early identification and early intervention in addressing this issue.
