We are an academic university-based program training residents in a community setting: Our university outpatient psychiatry clinic and health care institutions in Lansing and nearby communities. Our inpatient child and adolescent psychiatry rotation cooperates with the Department of Psychiatry at the University of Michigan. We utilize multiple community facilities, including Clinton-Eaton-Ingham Community Mental Health Center, Local Area School Districts, and others, to help our fellows learn how to treat complex psychopathology in children and adolescents. The MSU Psychiatry Prevent to Protect Project is a nationally recognized program to prevent targeted violence in youth.
