"As an inner-city educator, working
with multicultural children and families
in low-income communities, I gained a
greater understanding of the adversity
that youth and families experience. My
outreach and research are now focused
on fostering well-being, resilience, and
promoting positive outcomes among
vulnerable populations," she said.
Carotta and her SDSU colleagues Staci
Born and Cynthia Elverson are currently
working in partnership with South Eastern Behavioral Health to increase access
to early childhood mental health prevention and interventions in South Dakota.
Through a $2.2 million grant from
the Substance Abuse and Mental Health
Services Administration and the South
Dakota Early Childhood Mental Health
Collaborative, they will help professionals identify and work with children, from
birth through age 5 who are experiencing
mental health/emotional difficulties.
The project will target mental health
services for children and families who
live in the 14 South Dakota counties,10
of which are designated as mental health
shortage areas.
"Our goal is to further ensure that children and families in rural areas of South
Dakota have increased access to mental
health services including prevention,
early identification, and early intervention." Carotta said.
