Senate Discussion on Ribicoff Bill and Mental Health Research at University of Oklahoma: Meeting Confirmation, 1969-11-12

The document discusses the creation of a Special Mental Health Research Center at the University of Oklahoma Medical Center, focusing on child mental health. The center is proposed to address the lack of resources for children with emotional problems, with only a few child psychologists available in the U.S. The center aims to provide psychiatric consultation for juvenile cases in Oklahoma. A meeting is scheduled with Dr. Marshall Schlechter to discuss the project with representatives from the Oklahoma Congressional Delegation.
