MENTAL HEALTH IN SCHOOLS

By Howard S. Adelman and Linda Taylor. For many children, schools are the main or only providers of mental health services. This book describes an approach to school-based mental health that better serves students, maximizes resources, and promotes academic performance. The resource includes an overview of the history of mental health programs in schools and the major issues confronting the field today. Lists and charts help organize and clarify information, while cartoons scattered throughout the book add some humor. Grades K–12. Appendix. Bibliography. Index. Corwin. 310 pages. ©2010.
