Synopsis

The Handbook of Child and Adolescent Systems of Care is a groundbreaking volume that presents the latest thinking in the field of child and adolescent psychiatry written by a stellar panel of child and adolescent psychiatrists. The Handbook shows that the best way to help at-risk children is not in isolated doctor and patient treatment rooms but with community-based systems of care (SOC) that incorporate an interagency integration of services based on a client-centered and family empowering orientation. This important resource offers psychiatrists, psychologists, social workers, counselors, pediatricians, nurses, educators, lawyers and judges, politicians, child advocates, parents, and families a guide to this dynamic new theory and practice. Comprehensive in scope, The Handbook of Child and Adolescent Systems of Care includes vital information on a wide variety of topics including

• Developmental and cognitive psychology in systems of care (SOCs)
• Social sciences, neurobiology, and prevention in SOC
• The best way to use psychopharmacology
• Family- and community-based interventions
• Culturally diverse populations
• Youth in juvenile justice and child welfare, school-based services
• Partnerships among parents, consumers, and clinicians
