Written for the non-professional in the field of mental health, this unique manual explains—in jargon-free language—the basic categories and causes of mental illness, and the types of services that the volunteer or lay mental health worker can perform in the community. The volume fills a distinct need for concise and authoritative materials to match the growing community interest in adequate and informed mental health care.
