The APA declared a mental health crisis in our youth; 1 in 5 children has a mental disorder. There is $170 billion available for schools to help with students' mental health needs because they are seeing an increase in peer conflict, truancy, and poor grades. The Coping Cat (CAT) Program is a school-based cognitive behavior intervention program used to combat the mental health crisis. This presentation focuses on the implementation of CAT.
