Children who have both developmental disabilities and mental health needs, and their families, face a wide range of additional challenges. This session presents these challenges and offers a process for incorporating mental health content into the LEND curriculum. Va-LEND faculty will share their process for identifying needed content, embedding it into the curriculum, and evaluating the process. Participants will have an opportunity for discussion and questions.
