| Abstract: | Policy work is demanding and sometimes complicated. There is very little current U.S. activity for children's mental health policy. A review of proposed legislation is not encouraging. This is not unusual. Children are not a voting constituency therefore, nurses must be advocates to ensure services and resources for those from infancy to teenage in need of mental healthcare through policy building and action coalitions. |
