Over the course of an African American's lifetime, mental health
care needs change according to an individual's unique interactions
with his or her environment. Mental Health Care in the
African-American Community uses this perspective to provide a
deeper analysis of factors and issues affecting the mental health
of African Americans. This comprehensive text provides a current
and historical analysis of the impact of mental health research,
policy, community, and clinical practice from a life course
perspective. Stressing evidence-based practice as an expanded way
to think and talk about individualizing and translating evidence
into a given practice situation, this valuable book provides a
social work context for all helping professions. Mental Health Care
in the African-American Community provides the helping community
with non-traditional, expanded ways of thinking and intervening in
the mental health needs and care of African Americans. Organized
logically, this complex subject presents data in a user-friendly
way that engages the reader, and provides chapter summaries and
suggested group/classroom activities to facilitate understanding.
This text is extensively referenced and includes figures and tables
to clearly illustrate data. Topics in Mental Health Care in the
