IRVINE CA, June 5, 2023 -- Following the declaration of California’s new Children’s Mental Health Awareness Week, Cognitive Leap is proud to announce its new partnership with one of the foremost networks for children’s mental health professionals, the California Association for Play Therapy (CalAPT). As the National Association for Play Therapy’s largest branch, CalAPT advocates for advancing play therapy and other evidence-based interventions for children and teens. “Sadly, the national mental health crisis has had an especially severe impact on kids,” states Jack Z. Chen, Founder and CEO of Cognitive Leap. “With our partnership with CalAPT, we can address this issue head-on.”
