Description
There will be a seminar and reception on October 22, 2013, with Invited ICHP Distinguished Lecturer Nicholas Ialongo, PhD in honor of ICHPs 25th Anniversary.
Dr. Ialongos seminar entitled Two Generations of Elementary School-based Universal Preventive Intervention Trials in Baltimore will focus on the outcomes of two trials that evaluated, intervened, and followed-up on urban, economically disadvantaged African Americans in elementary schools who exhibited aggressive/disruptive behavior, attention/concentration problems, and poor academic achievement in early elementary school. The primary goals of the trials intervention were the promotion of educational and occupational success and the prevention of substance abuse/dependence, antisocial behavior, and depression and anxiety in adolescence and adulthood. Dr. Ialongo will discuss the variation in intervention response and the implications the results present for education, substance abuse, and mental health policy.
