SUMMARY:Mental Health Policy and Practice Issues in the Wake of Sandy 
 Hook: An Invitation to the Conversation
DESCRIPTION:Hofstra University's School of Health Sciences and Human S
 ervices\nas part of National Public Health Week presents\nMental Healt
 h Policy and Practice Issues in the Wake of Sandy Hook:\nAn Invitation
  to the Conversation\nWednesday, April 3, 2013 - 4-5:30pm\nUniversity 
 Club, David S. Mack Hall, North Campus\nThe deadly shooting at Sandy H
 ook Elementary School in Connecticut has generated shock, grief and pa
 ssionate discussion, all leading ultimately to the question: how do we
  prevent such horrific tragedies from reoccurring in our society? With
  the shooting deaths of innocent children and educators in a school co
 mmunity, basic assumptions have been shattered, and people are trying 
 to understand how such things can happen. In particular, schools are b
 eing challenged to focus on ways to better prevent and address such cr
 ises. As a country, we need to do a much better job in the identificat
 ion and early intervention of those with mental illness conditions; we
  need to provide families appropriate intervention supports in the com
 munity; we need to help schools, colleges and communities better addre
 ss the mental health needs of their members; and, we need to take this
  challenge on as relevant to all of us! As an educator, you are invite
 d to this panel discussion led by experienced practitioners aimed at e
 xploring these issues and how we can move toward positive changes. Com
 e join us in this important conversation!\nPANEL MODERATOR: \nLaurie
