Experts from a wide range of professions – social work, nursing, psychology, psychiatry, public health, sociology, and law – explore the major trends, best practices, and policy issues shaping community mental health services today. Coverage of each topic shifts the focus from management to recovery in the treatment of chronically mentally ill patients. Coverage of organizational and policy issues gives students a head start on mastering the overarching factors that shape their field.
This book offers the greatest breadth of coverage available, including hot-button topics like the following:
evidence-based treatments
neuropsychiatric perspectives
Diversity
Substance abuse
New chapters cover a variety of special populations, which ensures students are prepared to work with a wide range of issues, including:
returning veterans
military families and families of the mentally ill
people affected by the "Great Recession"
teenagers
children
the homeless
Students preparing to become mental health professionals, practitioners in community mental health settings, and policy planners and advocates engaged in the evaluation and development of programs in the human services will find this text to be an invaluable resource in their training and work.
