This book is a guide to service-learning that is geared towards school psychologists, school counselors, school social workers and other allied mental health and educational professionals. It describes how service learning - an intervention that can be both remedial or preventive and individual or systemic - can enable school psychologists and other educational and counseling professionals to expand their roles beyond working with special populations to serving students within the academic mainstream. This book: highlights the connections between the positive psychology movement, the nurturing of purpose in youth, and the benefits of service learning; introduces case studies of school-based mental health professionals who have implemented service learning; and provides practical materials and forms to guide mental health practitioners in organizing and assessing service learning activities.
