CURRENT PROJECTS

Juvenile Justice

Project Description

REACH staff (while formerly at Columbia) worked in partnership with the Center for the Promotion of Mental Health in Juvenile Justice.  This Center and its collaborators, under the leadership of Gail Wasserman, Ph.D., work to promote efficient means for comprehensive and reliable mental health assessment.  In addition, they assist juvenile justice programs in determining how to implement these procedures and how to map appropriate mental health services onto them.  They develop products to move information and knowledge between the fields of juvenile justice and mental health and we provide recommendations for practice.  For more information, please visit their website at the above link.
