The remainder of the coordinators' time will be dedicated to supporting ongoing clinical operations within a community mental health pediatric anxiety treatment program (the Pediatric Anxiety Treatment Center at Hall Mercer; PATCH Program) as well as coordinating foundation-funded program expansion related to selective mutism programming and quality improvement efforts. This position will also assist with maintaining and nurturing positive working relationships with research collaborators, study participants, and families seeking mental health services for anxiety and related disorders.
