"Stigma, fear and a lack of information about mental health problems have been identified as reasons why mental health and mental illness have not been adequately addressed in many schools. The Mental Health and High School materials have been developed to help overcome some of these barriers. By providing accurate, peer-reviewed information on mental health and mental illness, and a range of interactive activities, the guide can help teachers deliver crucial information in a way that engages and challenges youth."--p. 11.
