Youth Development Clinic

For nearly six decades, the Youth Development Clinic (YDC) has been dedicated to providing behavioral health services for children and families in Newark, Essex County, and surrounding communities. We work to attain effective personal, family, and community functioning through outpatient services, school consultation and counseling, and personal development. In close partnership with educational and social service organizations, we work to meet the behavioral and mental health needs of local families, using empirically-based and culturally-relevant methods for cultivating social, emotional, and educational well being – things we believe every child deserves.
