The Research and Training Center for Children's Mental Health
Since 1984, the Center has conducted research, synthesized and shared existing knowledge, provided training and consultation, and served as a resource for other researchers, policy makers, administrators in the public system, and organizations representing parents, consumers, advocates, professional societies, and practitioners. The Center’s annual conference has become the principal national forum for exploring research and evaluation findings related to the implementation of systems of care. Building on previous investigations, the Center’s eight integrated field research projects focus on enhancing our understanding of policy development and implementation as it pertains to improving outcomes for children with emotional disturbances and their families.
