| Popis: | The economic impact of a lack of educational achievement for individuals with psychiatric disabilities is profound. Current poor economic conditions exacerbate the effects of low educational levels. This article presents the current educational barriers faced by individuals with psychiatric disabilities and introduces one potential solution: supported education. Supported education is an emerging best practice which holds promise for helping individuals with psychiatric disabilities in their pursuit of educational goals. However, additional barriers stand in the way of widespread supported education implementation. Recommendations are included for policymakers and community mental health centers to help increase the penetration of this much-needed service. |
