Responding to the mental health needs of latino children and families through school-based services

Garrison, Ellen Greenberg, Roy, Ila S, Azar, Viviana·1999·Clinical Psychology Review

Abstract

This article highlights the value and utility of school-based mental health services in addressing the unmet mental health needs of Latino children and families in the United States. To better understand our nation's rapidly growing Latino population, such critical factors as demographic characteristics, cultural values, and family structure are examined. Special attention is devoted to the daunting challenges and resultant trauma experienced by many of these children and families who have recently immigrated to this country from war-torn home-lands in Central America. The mental health status of Latino children is addressed, along with various service delivery issues and psychotherapeutic modalities to facilitate their personal adjustment and social adaptation in a culturally sensitive manner. The article concludes with the presentation of an innovative school-based mental health program that offers a range of services of demonstrated effectiveness in aiding Latino children and their families. Specific strategies for replicating the program model in other culturally diverse settings are also discussed.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
