[Parkland’s audacious goal: Mental-health screening for all 50,000 Dallas County kids it serves]( Columnist Sharon Grigsby writes: Equipping children’s doctors to be the front line in behavioral health — to treat mild and moderate mental health challenges and to refer more serious cases to the right source for help — is a best practice slowly taking hold across the country. Parkland’s effort is particularly significant because, if successful, it will be a safety net for the tens of thousands of Dallas County kids who are part of uninsured or underinsured families and whose life circumstances leave them most vulnerable to mental health challenges. A year ago, Georgetown University’s Center for Children and Families found that half of the country’s 10 counties with the most children lacking health insurance are in Texas.
