Reviews evidence and identifies practice and policy issues pertaining to the prevention of common child and adolescent behavioural health problems: substance use/misuse; delinquent conduct; violence, including the perpetration and victimisation of bullying, sexual violence, and dating violence; and school dropout.
At no time in U.S. history have young people been confronted by such an array of positive and negative influences and opportunities. The recent coronavirus pandemic, in particular, has adversely impacted the behavioural health of young people by disrupting normal school, family, interpersonal, and social norms. In this text, the authors respond to recent calls from practitioners, policymakers, and the public to increase the use of effective prevention approaches for child and adolescent behavioural health challenges.

The authors identify effective prevention approaches and discuss the challenges associated with developing, implementing, and testing prevention strategies. The applied nature of the book offers readers detailed program and intervention examples.
