Abstract
Advancing equity and justice in school mental health can address inequities in school-based services and outcome disparities. The purpose of this special issue is to promote equitable and just systems and practices in school mental health to promote change in institutional practices that have produced and reproduced inequities over time. The four articles in this special issue clarify a process for advancing equity in school mental health by addressing justice-centered variables to promote connections across and within systems to realize a vision of comprehensive and integrated school mental health.
