Course Description
This course focuses on topics relevant to pediatric behavioral and mental health in Kentucky in considering the genetic (Nature) and environmental (Nurture) effects on the mental health of children. Our keynote address will target the Vermont Family Based Approach, an innovative program designed to improve children’s emotional and behavioral health by incorporating genetic neuroscience research into family-based clinical practice. Other morning topics will include prevention of adolescent suicide, PTSD and the effects of video games on children’s behaviors. The afternoon venue will consist of breakout sessions which will use case presentations as the basis for in depth discussions on the following topics: Psychopharmacology of impulse control disorders and aggression, Integrated health care models, and temperament issues. The course will then conclude with a brief summary and call to action.

Statement of Educational Need

Pediatricians throughout Kentucky view mental health as an area of critical concern in their practices and report that up to 30 percent of their office time is devoted to meeting the mental and behavioral health care needs of patients and families. According to the chair of the American Academy of Pediatrics Task Force on Mental Health, 21 percent of children and adolescents in the United States meet diagnostic criteria for a mental health disorder and another 16 percent have impaired mental health functioning but no specific diagnosis. The World Health Organization (WHO) has called integrating mental health services into primary care the most viable way to close the treatment gap for mental illness and an investment that can yield affordable and effective results. The Pediatric Alliance for Behavioral and Mental Health was formed in 2010 in response to pediatrician concerns and community needs. The Alliance includes pediatricians, psychologists, child psychiatrists, educators, social workers, nurse practitioners, and representatives from mental health organizations and mental health providers. The Alliance, in its effort to advocate for pediatric mental health services and training, began the annual Pediatric Mental and Behavioral Health Symposium in 2012.

Target Audience
This activity is targeted toward pediatricians, child psychiatrists, psychologists, social workers, educators, nurses and all others working with pediatric mental health that are interested in the topics presented.
