“Beyond One-Size-Fits-All: Designing Mental Health Care That Works for Every Child”


Too many children who need mental health support can’t get the care they need. Families often face long waits, fragmented systems, and limited access to specialists. The 2026 On the Shoulders of Giants Scientific Symposium will explore new approaches to youth mental health care that could help more children get support when and where they need it.


Learning Objectives
Evaluate approaches to youth mental health care that can improve access and outcomes for children from diverse backgrounds
Assess ways to match children with the right care based on their individual needs, development, and response to treatment
Identify practical, system, and equity challenges to delivering care across healthcare, schools, communities, and virtual settings
Examine how AI and digital tools can expand access to youth mental health support while maintaining quality and safety.


Audience: Researchers, children’s mental health care experts, educators, parents, and young people who are interested in learning about current advancements in these fields.
