Summary

This study tested whether offering 6 months of phone support from a mental health navigator helps children with early signs of behavioral health issues start therapy. 358 children who had never received mental health services took part. The navigator helped families find and coordinate care, and offered brief video therapy sessions to make it easier to get help.
