Child and Adolescent Bipolar Foundation

CABF President’s Welcome
Whether you are a first time visitor or a long time member, I welcome you to our online community, the Child and Adolescent Bipolar Foundation Web site.

For five years, we've served as a meeting place for families dealing with the challenge of raising children with bipolar disorder. We are open 24 hours a day, 365 days a year to provide essential support and information to all of you who are struggling to do the best you can for your children and families.

We know what it feels like to search for the right doctor, to find the appropriate school, and to make decisions about medications. The board and staff of CABF are dedicated to providing you with the most current information available so that you can do the best job possible for your children and your family.

As a member of the CABF family, you are never alone wherever you live. Help is always available whether you post on our many message boards, take part in our facilitated chat rooms, become a member of an online support group or download information from our legal and education pages.

I’d also like to extend a special welcome to teachers and school personnel who work with our kids. CABF is dedicated to getting you the information and tools you need to serve our children’s special needs.

I urge you to take full advantage of CABF's outstanding resources. Visit us often, and don't be afraid to let us know what you need. I welcome your feedback and look forward to working together to make a difference in the lives of all our children.
