What if we knew how to prevent children and youth from engaging in risky and self-destructive behaviors? What if we can use scientific research to identify those factors that work and then could replicate success? In 2009, the National Research Council and the Institute of Medicine issued a report: Preventing Mental, Emotional, and Behavioral Disorders among Young People: Progress and Possibilities that change the thinking of researchers and policymakers about behavioral health. It launched a new era of prevention research and we are beginning to see the dividends today. Policymakers are now looking for ways to prevent as well as treat social problems. #BehavioralHealth, #ChildWelfare, #Employment, #Research, #Work
