Children and Adolescents Mental Health: A Review of Mental Health in Schools and Communities

Gabriel Smith

There is growing evidence and awareness regarding the magnitude of mental health issues across the globe, starting half of those before the age of 14 and have lifelong effects on individuals and society. Despite the multidimensional nature of this global challenge, which necessarily requires comprehensive approaches, many interventions persist in seeking solutions that only tackle the individual level. The aim of this paper is to provide a systematic review of evidence for positive effects in children and adolescents’ mental health resulting from interventions conducted in schools and communities in which interaction among different agents is an integral component.
