The IMPACT Study was conducted by Vanderbilt University's Center for Mental Health Policy in conjunction with Tennessee Voices for Children, the Tennessee Commission on Children and Youth, and Mississippi Families as Allies. The IMPACT Study focused on mental health and substance abuse issues of school-aged children and adolescents in Tennessee and Mississippi. The IMPACT Study was funded by the United States Department of Health and Human Services (USDHHS) Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) as part of a national study to examine the impact of Medicaid managed care on vulnerable populations. Tennessee Voices for Children is the family organization contracted to disseminate information on the IMPACT Study to multiple audiences including families, providers, and policy makers.
