| Description: |
School-Linked Services details an array of evidence-based services, programs, initiatives, and relationships that are crucial for children's success in school and life. Practices and programs include afterschool and summer sessions, early-childhood education, school-linked health and mental health services, family engagement, and youth leadership opportunities. This volume also addresses the policy and funding requirements that help these partnerships thrive in both rural and urban contexts and evaluates school-community partnerships across the world. Representing collaborations across professions and organizations, this book will appeal to those in social work, education, psychology, public health, counseling, nursing, and public policy. |
| Synopsis: |
The evidence-based strategies in this volume close the achievement gap among students from all sociological backgrounds. Designed according to local needs assessments, they provide the services, programs, initiatives, and relationships that are crucial for children's success in school and life.These practices and programs include afterschool and summer sessions, early-childhood education, school-linked health and mental health services, family engagement, and youth leadership opportunities. This book addresses the policy and funding requirements that help these partnerships thrive and offers effective counterarguments against those who would question their value. The text describes strategies that work in both rural and urban contexts and includes a chapter evaluating school-community partnerships across the world. Because it involves collaborations across professions and organizations, the book's interdisciplinary approach will appeal to those in social work, education, psychology, public health, counseling, nursing, and public policy. |
