Project Purpose:
The purpose of this project is to identify students with behavioral health problems, link the children and their families to appropriate behavioral health services, and develop a new rural isolated elderly behavioral health/emergency health care outreach network.

Project Service Area:
The Wayne County Multi-Generational Behavioral Health Project serves one of the state’s most poor, isolated, and distressed areas with the greatest percent of population over age 85. Located in southern Iowa along the border with Missouri, Wayne County suffers troublesome economic, educational, and environmental problems that have damaged for years the mental and behavioral health of its children and youth, families, schools, and communities.
