Resources
United States resources
Verify availability, cost, age range, and clinical scope before relying on a service. This list is a starting point, not an endorsement.
ADHD
- CDC ADHD hub: government information on symptoms, diagnosis, treatment, data, and resources.
- CDC Clinical Care of ADHD in Children: links to clinical guidance and the American Academy of Pediatrics recommendations.
- NIMH ADHD information: federal mental-health information.
- CHADD / National Resource Center on ADHD: caregiver and education resources; check current contact details on the site.
ARFID and eating concerns
- NEDA ARFID information: overview and support links.
- NEDA treatment directory: searchable eating-disorder treatment resources; confirm that a provider treats children and ARFID specifically.
- FEAST: caregiver education and support for eating disorders. Use its information alongside a child's clinical team.
School and care coordination
- Ask the school about the appropriate evaluation and accommodation process under local and federal rules. A pediatrician, school psychologist, counselor, or special-education coordinator can explain the path in your district.
- Ask clinicians to document who monitors growth, nutrition, medication effects, and feeding progress.
For family navigation while looking for services, see Family Voices and Family-to-Family Health Information Centers. A family navigator can help with information and service navigation but does not provide clinical assessment or guarantee access. Verify local services directly.
Urgent support
- In the United States, call or text 988 for immediate suicide or mental-health crisis support.
- For medical emergencies, call 911 or use local emergency services.
