Dear Parents:
Welcome to YourTeen.org, a website for parents managed by Milford Regional Medical Center's Center for Adolescent and Young Adult Health. The goal of our website is to help you better understand what is going on with your teen and the best ways to help them through this challenging stage of development.
Whether you are concerned about your teen's health, behavioral issues, bullying, Internet use, a recent divorce, or loss of a loved one, you will find useful information and advice here.
The website also links to Massachusetts 2-1-1, a hotline and website that provides referrals to health and human services in your community such as counseling and after school programs.
Yours in Health,
Kathryn (Katie) Y. Lee, M.D. and Darlene Vittori-Marsell, PNP-BC
