UCLA psychology department to launch youth behavioral health minor

Original: ‘Very overdue’: Psychology department to launch youth behavioral health minor

The UCLA psychology department is launching a new undergraduate minor in youth behavioral health. The Daily Bruin described the move as 'very overdue', reflecting a view among students and faculty that training in youth mental health has lagged behind growing demand for services and workforce capacity in schools, clinics and community programs.

Why now: Youth mental health is a prominent campus and public concern, and a new academic program addressing it is seen as a long-needed step.
