Our Promise
The content we publish is intended to inform and educate our audience about the mental health challenges facing children, teens, and families, and to offer hope for recovery, as well as expert insight into the many treatment options available.
Our Voice
We know that watching a loved one struggle with their mental health is difficult and scary. Therefore, we approach content through the lens of our clients and their families, making it relevant and easy to understand. We aim to destigmatize mental health treatment, so more young people get the help they need.
In addition, we create content specific to mental health, medical, and school professionals, covering the latest updates in the field and offering tools to support them in their work with young people and families.
Our Editorial Team
Our editorial team includes Newport staff and contract writers who have years of experience writing on behavioral health. Our team performs extensive research, referencing the most up-to-date, peer-reviewed studies available on mental health. We also conduct interviews with internal medical and clinical experts.
Content is reviewed by the Content Director and a member of our medical and clinical team to ensure accuracy and readability.
