Fostering the Emotional Well-Being of Our Youth

Redefining mental health to both promote psychological well-being as well as treat psychopathological disorders is a game changer for school mental health. Fostering the Emotional Well-Being of Our Youth describes what this paradigm shift means for school mental health practices: why the promotion of students' well-being is so important; how this new paradigm will change day-to-day practices of school mental health professionals; and what the outcomes will be for students, educators, and the schools. The book's chapters are written by some of the foremost researchers and scholars in school mental health practices, and their work will shape the profession's adaption and application of dual-factor mental health in future decades.
