Abstract

Recognition of unmet mental health needs of children and youth has helped to prompt the advancement of more comprehensive mental health services for youth in schools, involving the mental health and education systems joining together to improve the depth and quality of services. These partnerships assist the mental health system in gaining access to children and youth and providing services to them in a more natural setting and assist the education system through enhanced services to help students in need.
