  • The Future Is Now: Supporting the Needs of Immigrant and Refugee Children at School.
    JG Lear, 2009 School Health Interdisciplinary Program Conference, Ellicott City, MD. August 3, 2009.
    This presentation summarizes recent immigration trends nationally and in the state of Maryland. It also describes several projects the Center has been working through the RWJF Caring Across Communities initiative. These projects have created a range of services and interventions that address both the academic and emotional needs of children and they offer lessons that all can use.
  • Building Successful School-Health Partnerships: Meeting the Challenges of Working Across Systems. 
    JG Lear, Grantmakers in Health Conference, Washington, DC. May 29, 2009.
    If health organizations are to provide prevention or treatment services in school, they must form successful partnerships with schools. While schools and health organizations share a commitment to children’s well-being, they have profoundly different organizational structures and operate in very different political environments. The presentation explains how the systems differ and how good partnership practices can overcome differences.
