Georgia Mental Health Access in Pediatrics Program

What Is GMAP? 

The Georgia Mental Health Access Program (GMAP) is a statewide initiative that helps health care providers take better care of children and adolescents with mental health conditions through provider education and increasing access to child and adolescent psychiatrists.

What GMAP Does

GMAP  ensures that more children have access to providers who are better able to screen, diagnose, manage and treat mental health.  This includes year-round education opportunities and access to on-call child and adolescent psychiatrists.
