TY - JOUR PY - 2002// TI - Mental Health in the Schools JO - Journal of child and family studies A1 - Dwyer, Kevin P. SP - 101 EP - 111 VL - 11 IS - 1 N2 - Progress is being made in the area of delivering mental health services in the schools through collaborative programs that involve combinations of schools, communities, and research-based programs. The goal of extending collaborative efforts to initiatives that prevent emotional and behavioral problems from developing or escalating is a cross-cutting theme of the National Agenda for Achieving Better Results for Children and Youth with Serious Emotional Disturbance . I discuss examples of collaborative efforts to prevent emotional behavioral problems in school children and ways by which this effort can be enhanced in schools and communities.
