Mental Health In Students with Learning Difficulties and Disabilities
This new article, just published in the Special Education Resource Journal (Australia), reflects the combined experience and perspectives of a Clinical Psychologist and Special Educator.

The creation of the new designation of Social, Mental and Emotional Health will bring particular challenges for teachers, but most will recognise the need, as this article points out , to begin to address this important area of development in all children and young people, but especially those with Special Needs.
