Beskrivning

Youth residential mental health care is often a last resort after a long time searching for help. Despite engaging with residential care, moving from residential mental health programs to life in the community, many youth still confront disturbing prospects. Incorporating vignettes, chapter summaries, as well as theory and evidence in fields such as education, juvenile justice, child welfare, independent living, supporting families, and positive youth development, this book proposes a template that is both credible and feasible for improving community living outcomes for youth leaving residential mental health programs.

Recensioner i media

"This book is an outstanding accomplishment, representing a definitive portrayal of past, present, and future. It should be required reading for any professional working to design and implement remedial programs for children and youth in residential treatment. This is particularly true for social workers and all students preparing for treatment-related careers serving children and youth."- D. Sydiaha, emeritus, University of Saskatchewan (CHOICE)
