This handbook offers a comprehensive overview of school mental
health (SMH) initiatives in rural areas in the United States. It
offers clinical and administrative guidelines for innovative and
effective programs addressing critical problems among rural youth
and in areas where funding and resources are scarce. Chapters cover
program development, implementation, sustainability, and
evaluation; consider issues of community and policy support;
address barriers to access and delivery; and debunk misconceptions
about the region and its cultures. Chapters also discuss rural SMH
applications relating to special populations, including students
with autism, depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, conduct
disorders, and ADHD. In addition, the book examines the potential
of school-based programs as a counter to the stigma and distrust of
mental health services common to the region. Handbook include: The
value of rural SMH from an educator's standpoint. Preventing
suicide among students in rural schools. Substance abuse in rural
school settings. Bullying and cyberbully among rural youth.
Intergenerational patterns of mental illness in rural settings and
their relevance for SMH. The importance of involving communities in
culturally competent rural interventions. The Handbook of Rural
School Mental Health is a must-have resource for researchers,
scientist-practitioners, and graduate students in child and school
psychology, educational psychology, social work/counseling,
educational policymakers, pediatrics/school nursing, teaching, and
teacher education.
