ForwardThe Mosaic of Mental Health: A Workshop for Pediatric Rheumatologists - Session 1
Mental health problems, particularly anxiety and depression, are more common in children and adolescents with pediatric rheumatologic diseases than healthy peers. Identifying these problems early on is important because they are known to negatively impact disease outcomes.

We HIGHLY recommend you attend both sessions of this series as the content will build from session one to session two.
