Advocating for Mental Health Supports in Schools Reviews

Dr. Dockweiler expertly breaks down the advocacy process so that even the most inexperienced advocate will walk away from this book feeling empowered to advocate for school mental health services.

From the foreword by Kelly Vaillancourt Strobach, PhD, Director of Policy and Advocacy, National Association of School Psychologists

Advocating for Mental Health Supports in Schools is a fantastic resource for stakeholders engaged in student mental health work at all levels of policy making. It touches on collaboration, workforce, and funding priorities and provides a view of the policy landscape that is rarely placed in one resource.

Meghan McCann, JD, Assistant Director, Education Commission of the States

I am excited for Advocating for Mental Health Supports in Schools as readers will find it a relatable and practical manual. We have a desperate need for a how-to book on advocacy and policy to inspire change around the topic of school-based mental health and workforce development.
