Title: Towards a comprehensive policy vision for mental health in schools
Description: Both formal and informal policies for mental health in schools must focus on a comprehensive vision that integrates fragmented agendas and reduces piecemeal and simplistic approaches to complex concerns. To influence school policy in a fundamental way and on a large-scale involves three matters: (1) understanding how current policy initiatives marginalize how mental health is addressed in schools, (2) reframing the argument for mental health in schools, and (3) pursuing policy changes in ways that connect efforts to enhance mental health in schools with school reform initiatives.Access at: http://smhp.psych.ucla.edu/publications/36 toward a comprehensive policy vision for mh in schools.pdf (For Personal Use Only)
