Mental Health, School-Based Health Centers, and Girls of Color: Policy and Practice Recommendations

Copyright
2019

The brief suggests health care and mental health care entities need to deepen their understanding of the communities they seek to serve, including, for example, by mitigating the “tax” levied on those seeking health care and mental health services, specifically low income clients.
