This is due to a number of reasons including the private nature of behavioral health sessions and lack of access to students who are in behavioral health programs. Incorporating social work students as leaders and providers of clinical interventions is often difficult in health systems that focus on prescribing as the main form of intervention for improving health outcomes. To address…
