This project will investigate if and/or where urban youth access mental health services in summer months in order to identify barriers to mental health access, the quality of summer mental health services, and the association between summer mental health access and the social and emotional profiles of youth. Associate Professor Jennifer Grief Green in collaboration with Assistant Professor Elizabeth Bettini, Professor Donna Pincus and Ph.D. candidate Rachel Oblath will conduct this research in Boston, Brockton and Fall River.
