In addition, chapters explore ways in which mental health and education professionals can implement evidence-informed programs, from the testing and experimental stages to actual use within schools and classrooms. Topics featured in this handbook include: · A Canadian perspective to mental health literacy and teacher preparation.· The relevance of emotional intelligence in the effectiveness of delivering school-based mental health programs.· Intervention programs for reducing self-stigma in children and adolescents. · School-based suicide prevention and intervention.· Mindfulness-based programs in school settings. · Implementing emotional intelligence programs in Australian schools.
