Amanda Sullivan, associate professor in the Department of Educational Psychology’s school psychology program, along with school psychology PhD student Jordan Thayer and alum Shanna Sadeh recently published a study on involvement of teens with disabilities in school, health, social service, and juvenile justice sectors.

The study appears in the journal Remedial and Special Education and shows the continued role of schools as the primary, and often sole, provider of services for these adolescents along with high rates of involvement with health, social services, and juvenile justice. The study points to the need for coordinated collaboration among systems and providers to support positive outcomes for these students.
