Education, Health, and Human Services Linkages SIG 38


SIG Purpose

The purpose of the Education, Health and Human Services Linkages SIG is to create a community of researchers and practitioners interested in developing knowledge about comprehensive school health, school linked services, and initiatives that support children and their families. 

The diversity of this field, which explores linkages among three distinct fields - education, health and human services - is clearly represented in the SIG's membership, which includes researchers, educators, service deliverers, administrators, and policymakers. Our interests encompass the array of interrelated policy, practice, and research issues that challenge efforts to forge viable linkages among these three distinct delivery systems.
