Utah Resources: Spreading Results

Based on the ABCD experience, Utah's Bureau of Maternal and Child Health created a new position, Children's Mental Health Promotion Specialist, focusing on children's mental health. This position offers the opportunity to sustain success by bringing public health and mental health together. Screening has already spread to a total of 18 additional learning collaborative practice partners.

This section contains resources for "Spreading Results" developed by Utah.
