Schools are more than places to learn — they can be essential gateways to mental health care. We look at how school-based health centers are expanding behavioral health services for children served by Nationwide Children’s and Nemours Children’s Health, drawing on promising models highlighted in a new issue brief from the Nemours Children’s National Office of Policy and Prevention.

This is part one of a two-part series on improving access to pediatric mental health care. Part two will explore how telehealth and early relational health models help children thrive.
