Sarah McCue Horwitz, Ph.D., is an internationally recognized children’s mental health services researcher, with 10 years of experience as a psychologist and over 25 years of experience conducting large community practice and services system research. She participated in both of the NIMH-funded multisite services and epidemiological studies (MECA and UNOCCAP) and was the principal author of a widely used, reliable and valid instrument to assess children’s services use, the Services Assessment for Children and Adolescents (SACA).
Dr. Horwitz has conducted several intervention evaluations including: (1) an evaluation of information technology training and an intensive case management intervention for an HRSA–sponsored Community Access Project grant; (2) 18-month outcomes under Connecticut’s Welfare Reform Experiment; (3) the impact on children’s functioning of a multidimensional assessment designed specifically for children entering foster care; and (4) the effect on diagnosis and management of psychosocial problems by primary care pediatricians of a web-based tool to gather developmental, emotional and behavioral data from parents.
Most recently she has been involved in a number of projects examining critical issues in the implementation of evidence-based practices in mental health and child welfare systems, including the IDEAS study, The Adoption of Innovations.
Prior to her appointment at NYU, Dr. Horwitz was a professor of Pediatrics at Stanford University and a faculty member in the Center for Health Policy at Stanford. Click here to view her CV.
