[QUOTE="ck1, post: 123829, member: 3767"] I sent a PM in response to this, but thought it might be helpful to others as well.... Pittsburgh is a great place for kids with a mental health diagnosis. If your child has a diagnosis (I have two, difficult child and my little easy child has Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD)-not otherwise specified) you can apply for MA, regardless of your income. Once you have MA, there are a multitude of services available that include wrap-around, family-based therapy, and many Residential Treatment Facility (RTF)'s. Also, there is a Bi-Polar clinic (also listed in the book) that is very good and not impossible to get into. I checked the mental health grades link that someone else posted and saw that PA received a D, however, each county is very different. My personal experience is that Allegheny County is very good. Hope this information helps someone... [/QUOTE]
