The New Community Psychiatry
The Handbook of Child and Adolescent Systems of Care is agroundbreaking volume that presents the latest thinking in the
field of child and adolescent psychiatry written by a stellar panel
of child and adolescent psychiatrists. The Handbook shows
that the best way to help at-risk children is not in isolated
doctor and patient treatment rooms but with community-based systems
of care (SOC) that incorporate an interagency integration of
services based on a client-centered and family empowering
orientation. This important resource offers psychiatrists,
psychologists, social workers, counselors, pediatricians, nurses,
educators, lawyers and judges, politicians, child advocates,
parents, and families a guide to this dynamic new theory and
practice. Comprehensive in scope, The Handbook of Child and
Adolescent Systems of Care includes vital information on a wide
variety of topics including
- Developmental and cognitive psychology in systems of care
(SOCs) - Social sciences, neurobiology, and prevention in SOC
- The best way to use psychopharmacology
- Family- and community-based interventions
- Culturally diverse populations
- Youth in juvenile justice and child welfare, school-based
services - Partnerships among parents, consumers, and clinicians
