Transforming School Mental Health Services provides a 'roadmap' for designing and implementing school psychological services for all students in a school. School psychologists will find guidelines for:
- Conducting a mental health needs assessment of the entire student body
- Analyzing patterns and trends to identify risk factors and common needs
- Using the needs assessment to plan and implement mental health service programs that respond to identified needs
