Increase the proportion of children and adolescents with behavioral problems who receive developmentally appropriate evidence-based treatment


Summary

This objective currently has developmental status, meaning it is a high-priority public health issue that has evidence-based interventions to address it, but doesn’t yet have reliable baseline data. Once baseline data are available, this objective may be considered to become a core Healthy People 2030 objective.
