      This publication promotes school based mental health services as a means for increasing access to care and for early intervention. There are 3 levels of intervention in school-based mental health: 1. Universal promotion/prevention... Implementing whole-school approaches (including training teachers and administrators) to ensure and foster wellness. 2. Targeted prevention: Providing prevention services for youth at-risk of developing mental health problems. 3. Indicated services: Providing assessment and direct care for youth with identified mental health needs. The approach of this Issue presents current evidence-based practice in schools and review of schools as a vital part of systems of care for youth. In addition to psychiatrists, this issue addresses collaboration with families, educators, administrators, social workers, counselors and psychologists. The Editors leading this issue are from Vanderbilt University and University of Maryland. Both Vanderbilt and Maryland have well-established clinical programs that provide a full continuum of mental health services, including "indicated services" to serve youth with mental health diagnoses (i.e., severe psychiatric disorders). Psychiatrists are part of the treatment team, and work directly in the school or provide consultation (often via telehealth technologies). Given that family engagement is a major part of making therapies work effectively, partnering with families is a critical part of the treatment process.

      La schizophrénie est une maladie mentale qui touche environ 600 000 personnes en France et pour laquelle, bien souvent, les soignants disposent de peu de moyens et d'outils au-delà du traitement pharmacologique et de la relation thérapeutique. Cet ouvrage, basé sur le modèle du rétablissement, est précisément conçu comme un outil destiné aux intervenants en psychiatrie communautaire, qui sont en première ligne dans la prise en charge des personnes souffrant de schizophrénie : infirmiers, éducateurs, travailleurs sociaux, ergothérapeutes. Il est également utile aux psychiatres et aux psychologues. Guide pratique et synthétique sur les interventions psychosociales complémentaires aux traitements pharmacologiques, cet ouvrage fait le point sur les connaissances actuelles autour de la schizophrénie et du rétablissement. Il aborde d'abord les stratégies générales d'engagement dans les soins, d'évaluation et de psychoéducation, puis les interventions psychosociales spécifiques pour les hallucinations, les idées délirantes, le syndrome déficitaire, la désorganisation, les déficits de la motivation et le soutien aux proches. Clair et pratique, cet ouvrage offrira aux professionnels de santé et du social une aide précieuse pour faire face aux situations difficiles des patients atteints de schizophrénie. Entièrement actualisée, cette nouvelle édition propose notamment un chapitre supplémentaire consacré aux « Interventions psychoéducatives destinées aux proches aidants ».
