The New Jersey Department of Children and Families (DCF) indicates that emotional or behavioral disorders can manifest in a variety of forms and vary from child to child. They can include but are not limited to depression, anxiety, panic disorders, bipolar disorder, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). It is essential to seek professional help if a child or adolescent is showing signs of emotional or behavioral issues. Parents or guardians can contact their local CMO for assistance on how to acquire services for their child, should they need it.
