ForwardSession One: Addressing the Mental Health and Academic Needs of “High- Risk” Children, Adolescents and Their Parents
This workshop discusses ways to use a multi-prong intervention approach designed to meet the mental health needs of students, along with their parents and educators. Given the lingering impact of the pandemic, school violence, and the disruptions due to natural disasters, there is an increasing need for the implementation of evidenced-based interventions.
