The purpose of this project is to provide high school students the information needed to explore behavioral health career paths by engaging in understanding the characteristics of a behavioral health professional, the daily duties, and the educational requirements to proceed down this path.
In addition, this project seeks to increase the level of interest in the field by allowing the students to explore the vast possibilities within it as well as the impact that behavioral health has on our society. In conducting these activities through multiple delivery methods, we hope to increase the number of behavioral health professionals in our state to help build a healthier, happier Tennessee!
