Social History, Mental Health, and Community Control
Hersch, Charles
American Psychologist, 27, 8, 749-754, Aug 72
The professional mental health community, which had romanticized the concept of community control, is presently becoming disenchanted with it due to the lack of facility and skills for working with it. The task is to understand and evaluate community control and to alter only those aspects found destructive to community well-being. (DM)
