There has been a substantial increase in the number of students with mental health needs, yet significant discrepancies exist in access to timely intervention. Traditional gatekeeping to intervention has been the provenance of single information sources. Multi-informant decision-making is a promising mechanism to improve equitable access. However, critical advancements are necessary to improve decision-making relating to (a) who is identified, (b) what type of need is determined, (c) the type of intervention necessary, and (d) where or under what circumstances to implement the intervention. We review critical components of effective mental health decision-making, contributors to inequities in school mental health services, and offer future directions for research and practice to increase equitable student outcomes.
