National Center for Mental Health Promotion and Youth Violence Prevention

The National Center for Mental Health Promotion and Youth Violence Prevention provides technical assistance and training to more than 200 school districts and communities that receive grants from the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.

We believe there is a tremendous opportunity for grantees to learn from one another. Grantees at Work presents case studies about grantees, the obstacles they encounter, and how they overcome these obstacles.
