Title: A social marketing approach to changing mental health practices directed at youth and adolescents. Author: Andreason AR. Journal: Health Mark Q; 2004; 21(4):51-75. PubMed ID: 15774369. Abstract: The mental health problems of children are of increasing social concern. Many best practices have been developed but often not implemented. Social marketing has been suggested as an innovative, useful approach to this challenge-along with others in the health care field.
