VCU Breaks Ground on New Virginia Treatment Center for Children

Virginia Commonwealth University Health System will break ground Thursday on the new Virginia Treatment Center for Children.

The state-of-the-art facility, which will replace the current 50-year-old facility located on VCU Medical Center’s downtown campus, will provide increased access to clinical care for children from across the state.

The ceremony will take place on Thursday, Dec. 11, at 3:30 p.m., at the Children’s Hospital of Richmond at VCU’s Brook Road Campus, 2924 Brook Rd.

The 120,000-square-foot pediatric behavioral health center is slated to be completed by fall 2017, and will house inpatient units, an outpatient behavioral health office, a Children’s Mental Health Resource Center and the Commonwealth Institute for Child and Family Studies. The 32-bed facility will be designed to meet the age-specific, special needs of children and adolescents and to support the needs of families.
