Synopsis: The Office of Special Education Programs (OSEP) of the U. S. Department of Education commissioned the Special Education Elementary Longitudinal Study (SEELS) and the National Longitudinal Transition Study-2 (NLTS2) to provide a national perspective on the experiences of students who receive special education services. The two studies are documenting the characteristics, experiences, and outcomes of a nationally representative sample of children in each disability category, including children with emotional disturbances. This presentation will report on the types of mental health and family support services and academic and behavioral supports provided to children with emotional disturbances.

Synopsis: This presentation will review the evidence-base on effective school-based mental health programs targeting both academic and mental health improvements. It will describe findings from a recent research review of over 2,000 studies to identify effective interventions that target both mental health and educational improvements for students. Findings from this review will be described and accompanied by a discussion of issues related to sustaining positive change in schools. Discussion of empirical strategies for improving the uptake, efficiency, and effectiveness of evidence-based practices in children’s mental health systems will be described in terms of its relevance for redefining the boundaries of school mental health.
