Denali Explorers

Denali Explorers serves young children ages 3-5 in Anchorage and the Mat-Su Valley that require emotional, social and behavioral support.

Services Provided

  • On Site Programs: Each Denali Explorers location offers morning and afternoon sessions at Denali Family Services facilities.  Behavioral Health Associations (BHAs) facilitate games and activities, teach social and emotional skills, and provide opportunities for children to practice those skills in a safe, supportive and fun environment.

  • Clinical: Clinical services include mental health assessments, individual, family and group therapy, as well as medication management if appropriate.
