Enhancing the Capacity of Rural Schools to Identify, Prevent, and Intervene in Youth Mental Health Concerns
In partnership with rural schools, we will develop a comprehensive set of teacher and student surveys, tools, interventions, and professional development materials to help identify, prevent, and intervene in mental health concerns among students.

Years 2 and 3: Provide input and feedback on the Early Identification System and other materials developed through the Center
Years 4 and 5: Help evaluate the impact of the Early Identification System on students’ academic, social, emotional, and behavioral outcomes Ea, consequatur.
