N2  - The School Mental Health (SMH) services play critical roles fostering positive mental health and helping children with psychological problems. Despite its proven value, SMH services remain less developed in India. In this context, sensitizing teachers about child mental health issues could be considered as an important step in SMH promotion. Towards this goal, a large scale sensitization program for school teachers on SMH issues was carried out in an Indian city. This paper reports the process and the outcome of this sensitization program.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>
