Context: Framework for improving health
Similaritiesin these frameworks A complex array of social, cultural, environmental,
biological, and economic factors impact physical and emotional health.
This complex array of factors must be addressed at the sources for public health and now public mental health to fulfill its mission.
This complex array of factors also requires broadening the scope of arenas critical to the focus and interventions of mental (emotional) health.
The active engagement of communities as essential partners is required to improve the social and emotional health of children & youth.
The recognition and use of strengths rather than only deficits as a basis for planning and intervention are an imperative.
Albert Einstein
If I had only one hour to save the world, I would spend fifty-five minutes defining the problem, and only five minutes finding the solution.
Eleanor Roosevelt
It takes as much energy to wish as it does to plan.
