Mini-groups for school children: preventive self-help groups that teach physicians.
School Health Program mini-groups were initiated with a two-fold purpose: (1) to create an environment in which a young person is able to explore a self-identified concern in a group setting, and (2) to provide one of several school-based learning experiences for pediatric residents. Drawing on past successes, the program will now channel its efforts toward developing evaluative research methodology and expanding the mini-group experience to include trainees from other disciplines concerned with the health, learning and behavior of children.
