| Popis: | The majority of adults with serious mental illness living in the community are parents, many of whom may be receiving services from State Mental Health Authorities. Innovative intervention approaches are available to improve outcomes for these parents and their children. An understanding of factors related to SMHA responsiveness to clients who are parents suggests strategies for policy and program development. Quantitative analyses of SMHA- and state-level data, and qualitative interviews of administrators, service providers, and consumers underscore the importance of organizational structure and philosophy, an advocacy presence, and available funding to SMHA efforts on behalf of parents and their families. |
