Abstract This article reviews the history of graduate education in psychiatric rehabilitation, and discusses unique aspects of teaching psychiatric rehabilitation at the graduate level. Various curriculum models are reviewed, with a discussion of similarities and differences across disciplines. Common educational objectives are summarized, and future directions are suggested.

Abstract This article reports on a study that investigated the relationship between practitioners' level of knowledge of psychiatric rehabilitation and certain professional characteristics of 279 practitioners from New Jersey and Pennsylvania. Having received a degree from a university psychiatric rehabilitation specialty department had a significant and substantial relationship with the study's knowledge variables, and was superior to other factors in predicting knowledge level of psychiatric rehabilitation goals, beliefs, and practices. However, relatively few (16%) of these practitioners had benefitted from this type of training so that the majority of these practitioners did not possess the basic knowledge of modern principles and practices. It was concluded that a serious information and technology transfer gap exists between the psychiatric rehabilitation knowledge base and practices in the field. Recommendations were suggested based upon the study's findings.

Abstract The call for paraprofessional staff to provide case management, skills training, and other direct care services is increasing due to budgetary constraints, managed care, and, in some geographic areas, a scarcity of available professionals. The Illinois Department of Human Services Office of Mental Health and the University of Chicago Center for Psychiatric Rehabilitation are collaborating with the community college system and others to develop and implement the Psychiatric Rehabilitation Certificate Program (PRCP) for training paraprofessional staff. This paper discusses the need for paraprofessional training in psychiatric rehabilitation and describes Illinois' efforts to address this need through a structured certificate program in community colleges.

Abstract This paper reviews the coordinated development of a statewide psychosocial rehabilitation system (called Towards Local Care or TLC) to support the deinstitutionalization of long-term psychiatric inpatients from South Carolina State Hospital. The process of developing stakeholder buy-in is detailed along with the essential clinical components of the effort. The development of community residential options that met the vaned supervision needs of the clients was critical to the development of effective programming. Of the 558 persons with mental illnesses who were served since the TLC program became operational in 1993, none have become homeless, only one has been incarcerated, and acute hospital utilization by this population has decreased 89% over pre-TLC rates. The gains that the individuals made in the hospital were maintained when they were transferred to the community. The individuals expressed a high degree of satisfaction with the services. The authors conclude that the TLC effort serves as a successful model for implementing psychosocial rehabilitation programming on a coordinated statewide basis.

Abstract “You can make morefriends in two months by becoming interested in other people than you can in two years by trying to get other people interested in you.” Throughout the United States, public mental health systems have for many years professed to provide services that are “consumer oriented.” The author writes that it is time for mental health systems to go beyond the inclusion rhetoric and actualize this important concept. It particularly needs to be actualized in minority populations. Currently, 1 in 4 Americans are nonwhite and/or Latino, and by the year 2050 the United States Census Bureau estimates 1 in 2 Americans will be so. There is growing concern as to whether community support programs are capable of providing culturally and linguistically appropriate and accessible mental health services to individuals, regardless of gender, age, race, sexual orientation, disability, national origin, language, religion, or socioeconomic status.

Abstract This article describes the critical role played by human resource development in the statewide implementation of psycho-social rehabilitation and support services (PSR) in Illinois. It begins by clarifylng the conceptual and clinical distinctness of PSR and proceeds to analyze the ramifications for PSR competency development. The authors address the practical challenges posed by such a large scale and complex program implementation initiative. The concepts of “empowerment” and “communities of practice” are used to explore issues such as: recruitment, training, curriculum development, collaboration (among providers, funders, and academic experts), and credentialing. Implications are drawn for future system change efforts.

Abstract The implementation of a pilot-project for training outpatient mental health staff in empirically-validated therapeutic contracting interventions is described. Thirteen staff members from various community settings were trained in how to design and implement behavior contracts for people diagnosed with schizophrenia. The nine-week training was conducted using a structured teaching manual created by the authors. The investigators describe the manual and report on the effectiveness of utilizing a brief seminar-type training format to educate staff about behavior contracting technology. Results provide evidence for the effectiveness of such a manualized training procedure. Specifically, results indicated that staff participants were satisfied with the training, that participants expect that the course will help them in their future work with clients, and that participants' knowledge of materials taught in the course increased. The implications of these results are discussed. Strategies for modifying and implementing similar training programs to disseminate behavior therapy technologies are emphasized.

Abstract Interventions with families of individuals with schizophrenia have primarily aimed at reducing relapse rates. In the Calgary Early Psychosis Program, we have different goals for our work with families. First, we educate families so that: (1) they understand the possibility of relapse and the resultant biological and psychological risks, (2) they can identify potential relapses, and (3) they can cope with relapses in order to minimize the time their relative experiences psychotic symptoms. Secondly, we want to reduce the distress and stressors they, as family members, may be experiencing. This is vital not only for their own mental health but also to contribute to a stress-free environment for their ill family member. This paper will describe our family approach, which is specifically designed to meet the needs of first episode families over a three-year period.

Abstract Family education programs are usually targeted to adult parents, spouses, and siblings. Because there are few models appropriate for children and adolescents affected by a family member with a mental illness, a family-centered program in Philadelphia held focus group meetings to obtain the perspectives of professionals and persons with mental illnesses. This was a preliminary step that would guide the design of educational workshops for children and adolescents. This paper reports the findings of the focus groups held with providers, adolescents, parents, and adult children or siblings. The groups recommended specific content areas for different age groups, suggested a variety of activities and teaching methods, and offered ideas about how the program might be structured and motivation might be maintained. Participants concurred that children and adolescents would benefit from obtaining accurate information and learning about coping strategies in educational workshops that are attuned to children's emotional needs and developmental stage.
