EMQ FamiliesFirst cares for children, teens, and their families who are at risk or in crisis. Many of our children suffer from emotional trauma; depression; or bipolar or other personality disorders; and are in need of psychiatric treatment. Many of these kids have also experienced trauma, severe neglect or abuse – emotional, sexual or physical.
