Ann & Robert H. Lurie Children's Hospital of Chicago in partnership with Northwestern University's new Mental Health, Earlier Center funded by an $11.7M grant award from The National Institutes of Health will help train pediatricians to assess toddlers for mental health risk. According to the investigative team which includes Michelle Macy, MD, MS, Andrea Spencer, MD, and Seema Shah, JD, HEC-C, these evidence-based interactive trainings, which will focus on ethics and equity, will aid in the early detection of mental health concerns among toddlers so that they receive earlier interventions to prevent more severe conditions down the line. https://lnkd.in/gKqZrSA7 Northwestern University - The Feinberg School of Medicine #mentalhealth #healthequity #ethics #research #mentalhealthawareness #toddlerhealth #pediatrics #healthcareaccess
