According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, almost 1 in 5 children suffer from a mental, emotional, or behavioral disorder. In response to this crisis, Kohl’s has donated $3 million to establish a new walk-in clinic for pediatric mental health care in Kenosha, Wisconsin.
The Children’s Wisconsin Kenosha Clinic opened in February 2024 and is one of only two clinics in the state offering immediate mental health care for kids. Children and teens ages 5-18 can walk into the clinic without an appointment or referral and receive care right away. The clinic is staffed by licensed therapists, social workers, and clinic assistants who are dedicated to providing support and access to mental health services for families.
Amy Herbst, vice president of mental and behavioral health at Children’s Wisconsin, emphasizes the importance of addressing this issue head-on. She describes the walk-in clinics as “urgent care” for mental health and encourages those in need to seek help without hesitation. Jill Timm, Kohl’s chief financial officer and board member of Children’s Wisconsin, recognizes the need for accessible mental health resources and applauds the efforts being made to address this challenge.
