description: As mental health systems mature, it becomes evident that the diversity among clients requires a variety of types of programs and services. The successful spread of community support programming during the last twenty years suggests that model programs or precepts can be disseminated and established all across the United States. But the relative success of community support programming is not necessarily representative. Other types of programs, more recent in origin, are much less commonly found. This volume discusses the dissemination of several kinds of programs or approaches for providing services to people with severe mental clubhouses, supported housing, vocational rehabilitation, standards for community support programs, integrated systems of care, self-help programs, and the PACT approach. This is the 74th issue of the quarterly journal New Directions for Mental Health Services .
