Abstract

This symposium will include presentations from a group of doctoral students who are part of Project TEAMS, a grant funded by the Office of Special Education Programs (OSEP) that aims to advance and improve equitable access to mental health services in schools through interdisciplinary preparation in school psychology and special education. Each presentation will describe a study aligned with Project TEAMS’ commitment to community-based, equity-focused scholarship. The symposium highlights the importance of funding doctoral training grants, particularly those aimed at increasing the diversity of the field and addressing issues of equity.
