On January 9, 2012, PolicyLab director David Rubin was an invited speaker for “Mental Health, Psychotropic Use, and Evidence-Based Interventions,” the first of a series of national webinars on psychotropic medication and child welfare convened by Commissioner Bryan Samuels of the US Administration on Children, Youth, and Families. Dr. Rubin’s presentation focused on PolicyLab’s forthcoming 50-state study of psychotropic medication use among children in foster care.
