Kerr’s Children’s Crisis Psychiatric Care and Outpatient Mental Health programs received a three-year accreditation—the highest level—from the Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities (CARF) International.
In 1997, with $3.2 million raised from community donations, Kerr constructs a new building and begins operating a Crisis Psychiatric Care program for children in danger of harming themselves or others, as well as a residential intensive treatment program.
