University Settlement Society

The role of the Mental Health Clinician is to engage children under five, their parents and caregivers as they build and maintain healthy relationships, learn to respond with love and kindness, and acquire skills and tools needed to effectively support future growth and development through a variety of developmentally appropriate treatment modalities including, Child-Parent Psychotherapy and Creative Arts Therapy.

University Settlement partners with 40,000 New Yorkers on the Lower East Side and in Brooklyn every year to build on their strengths as they achieve healthy, stable, and remarkable lives.

Early Head Start offers comprehensive child development services, family support services and advocacy to low income pregnant women and families with children under three years of age. The program provides developmentally appropriate care and home visits to families in the East New York, Brooklyn.
