[Children’s Friend](https://www.sevenhills.org/affiliates/childrens-friend) would like to express their most sincere thanks to The [Blue Cross Blue Shield of Massachusetts Foundation](https://www.bluecrossmafoundation.org/) for the generous [Catalyst Fund](https://www.bluecrossmafoundation.org/grant/catalyst-fund) grant of $4,270 to train additional clinicians in providing specialized Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT).
