The American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry provides information as a public service to aid in the understanding and treatment of the developmental, behavioral, and mental disorders which affect an estimated 7 to 12 million children and adolescents at any given time in the United States. You will find information on child and adolescent psychiatry, fact sheets for parents and caregivers, AACAP membership, current research, practice guidelines, managed care information, awards and fellowship descriptions, meeting information, and much more. Since there are no child and adolescent psychiatrists on staff, it is neither ethical nor responsible to give consultations for specific children and families.
