School-Based Diversion for Youth With Mental Health Needs
This webinar profiled Connecticut’s school-based diversion programs, developed with help from the MacArthur Foundation's Models for Change initiative and technical assistance from the National Center for Mental Health and Juvenile Justice, to reduce the flow of children with mental health issues from schools into the youth justice system. Presenters discussed key components of the models, how they have worked with advocates and other community stakeholders on the program, funding mechanisms, outcomes, successes and challenges, how the work can be replicated, and how it fits in with addressing other school-to-jail issues.
