The Baker Center for Children & Families (also known as Judge Baker Children’s Center), a national leader in children’s mental health, elected three new members to their Board of Trustees this summer.

The Baker Center, a national leader in children’s mental health, has received a 4-year grant from The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) to create The MetroWest Evidence-based Trauma-Informed Referral & Treatment Initiative for Children (METRIC). METRIC aims to increase access to trauma-focused, evidence-based services for children and adolescents ages 2 to 18, and their families, in school and community-based settings in Waltham, Boston, and surrounding communities.

We're looking to add dedicated and enthusiastic new members to our Board of Trustees! If you're passionate about children's mental health, take a look at the application requirements.

It's time to lace up your sneakers and grab your capes for a superhero-inspired celebration of children’s mental health. All are welcome at our SuperK Walk, Roll & Fun Run, a family-friendly 1K/5K event to support kids with mental health challenges.
