College Readiness Toolkit
College is an exciting time for young adults, but it presents many challenges — especially for students with mental health or learning disorders. Our toolkit has guidance for teens (along with a section for parents) on how to get a good start in college and deal with some of these challenges during this critical period of building independence.
Learning Terminology
Learning differences, learning disabilities and learning disorders are all terms we use when we talk about struggles with learning. In this video, Matthew Cruger, PhD, the clinical director of the Child Mind Institute, explains how each has a place.
