Public Health Committee Corner

The NASMHPD Public Health Committee and the National TA Center for Children’s Mental Health are pleased to present these audio play back and handouts from a series of calls with the National Association of State Mental Health Program Directors (NASMHPD) Children, Youth and Family Division . These calls are taking place starting in December 2009 through September 2010 and are exploring the application of the public health model to children’s mental health in States and the role of States in advancing these efforts. As calls take place, they will be archived here in this corner of the National TA Center for Children’s Mental Health at Georgetown University’s website.
