Product Description:

Mental health clinics face barriers moving families from first contact to treatment completion, including low retention and incomplete screening. Over five years, a child behavior clinic tested strategies: follow-ups, shorter forms, online screening, and a public survey link. Only the public link improved screening completion; none increased attendance or graduation. Combined approaches may help reduce access barriers.
