Supporting Chicago’s children, families, and educators since 1901. We accept BCBS of Illinois PPO, as well as self-pay clients.

The mission of JPA is to improve the social and emotional well-being and functioning of vulnerable children so they can reach their fullest potential at home, in school, and in our communities. This is accomplished by providing therapeutic counseling services to at-risk children and families, conducting research, sharing knowledge, and providing expert consultation and guidance to others serving these children and families. JPA's New Light program, located in our Lincoln Park office, provides the highest-quality mental health services to children, teenagers, adults, couples and families. Some sliding scale appointments are available.

Community support can take so many forms! 🧘‍♀️💙

This past weekend, local supporters turned a yoga class into a way to give back, donating the class fees to JPA. Thank you to the instructor, organizers, and everyone who participated!

Creative, DIY fundraisers like this are a great way to bring people together and support JPA in your own way. Every effort, big or small, makes a difference!

Learning never stops at JPA! 💡

Ahead of the new school year, our team came together to continue our professional development through training led by Jennifer, LCSW, of JJP Psychotherapy and Consultation.

We're so grateful for every opportunity to learn, grow, and strengthen the support we provide to children, families, and educators across Chicago.

Juneteenth carries lasting significance and continues to shape how we understand equity, opportunity, and community. JPA’s office is closed in observance, recognizing the importance of these values and honoring both their meaning and the work that remains.
