Course Description: Approximately 1 in 5 individuals will experience a significant mental health issue at some point during their early academic experience. Unaddressed mental health disorders can play a contributory role for this demographic’s substance use rate, suicide rate, subpar academic performance level, and eventual involvement in criminal activity. Researchers note that factors adversely impacting the respective individual’s mental health can be addressed via implementation of early symptom detection measures commensurate with feasible tx (treatment) interventions and related tx methods. These approaches can be beneficial for effective and affective symptom mitigation.  School-based practitioners may use a Multi-Tiered Systems of Support (MTSS) as a preliminary framework for addressing the mental health needs of this demographic.

Learning Objectives:

  1. Understand the impact of differing factors on the mental health of school-aged individuals and the consequent need for addressing these issues
