 School-Based Mental
Health Services
More than 20% of
children and adolescents have mental health problems. Health care
professionals for children and adolescents must educate key
stakeholders about the extent of these problems and work together
with them to increase access to mental health resources.
School-based programs offer the promise of improving access to
diagnosis of and treatment for the mental health problems of
children and adolescents. Pediatric health care professionals,
educators, and mental health specialists should work in
collaboration to develop and implement effective school-based
mental health services.
