Research has led to the development of hundreds of evidence-based prevention interventions, most of which are school-based prevention programs. Most primary care clinicians and child/adolescent behavioral health clinicians are unfamiliar with and/or lack training in evidence-based prevention interventions. However, most clinicians in these settings routinely screen children for developmental delays and skills deficits that increase the risk of developing substance abuse and a broad range of mental health and behavior problems by adolescence. It is hoped that the broader use of these practical evidence-based prevention tools may expand the prevention workforce to address the current youth mental health crisis.
研究已经促成了数百种基于证据的预防干预措施的发展,其中大多数是基于学校的预防计划。大多数初级保健临床医生和儿童/青少年行为健康临床医生不熟悉和/或缺乏基于证据的预防干预措施的培训。然而,这些环境中的大多数临床医生通常会对儿童进行发育迟缓筛查,以及技能缺陷筛查,这些都会增加儿童在青少年时期出现药物滥用和广泛的心理健康和行为问题的风险。人们希望更广泛地使用这些实用的基于证据的预防工具,可能会扩大预防人员队伍,以应对当前的青少年心理健康危机。
