Abstract: Federal grants have been instrumental in addressing the critical shortage of school psychologists and other school-based mental health providers in the United States since 2019. The National Association of School Psychologists (NASP) has been advocating for workforce shortages for over two decades, resulting in the development of federal grant programs like the School-Based Mental Health Services Professionals Grant (MHSP) and the School-Based Mental Health Services Grant Program (SBMH). These grants aim to increase the number of school mental health professionals and improve access to comprehensive school mental health services, with a focus on diversity and retention. The grants have shown promising results in increasing the number of professionals and providing essential mental health services to students, although challenges remain in meeting the recommended student-to-psychologist ratio of 1:500.
