Promising Practices in Children's Mental Health Vol. VII : A Compilation of Lessons Learned from the 22 Grantees of the 1997 Comprehensive Community Mental Health Services for Children and Their Families Program

The CCMHSCFP supports comprehensive systems of care, helping to meet the needs of the 4 million children with a serious emotional disturbance. Here, the grantees themselves share their experiences in: family involvement/empowerment, cultural competency, systems of care, evaluation, & managed care. The sites documented their ÓLessons LearnedÓ in implementing the Fed. grant prog. An author from each of the 22 sites writes each story from their own experience. These stories are shared in the hope that others who are working toward a community-based, family-focused, culturally competent system of care can benefit from their efforts, & move toward success more quickly.Chavez, Nelba is the author of 'Promising Practices in Children's Mental Health Vol. VII : A Compilation of Lessons Learned from the 22 Grantees of the 1997 Comprehensive Community Mental Health Services for Children and Their Families Program', published 2002 under ISBN 9780756713683 and ISBN 0756713684.
