SC School Behavioral Health

This one-day summit will involve policy leaders, researchers, practitioners, educators, family members and other advocates to review data and qualitative information on the development of School Behavioral Health (SBH) in our state to identify strengths, areas of innovation, challenges and ways to overcome them, toward a more coherent, expanding and effective statewide approach. The summit is hosted by the SC School Behavioral Health Collaborative, and will include leaders from around the state. Based on meeting recommendations, a white paper will be developed and disseminated statewide to promote progress in SBH and enhance SC's national leadership.
