Title: Mental Health Care Canada 61 (New Directions for Mental Health Services)
Description: This volume of New Directions for Mental Health Services grew out of a symposium that was presented at the Forty-Fourth Institute of Hospital and Community Psychiatry in Toronto in October 1992. The symposium had in turn evolved from discussions among the editors of this volume held at the Clarke Institute of Psychiatry in Toronto almost a year earlier.

System change was in the air in mental health programming, as both the United States and Canadian governments were reviewing their obligations and priorities in this area. The United States was looking northward to see how its neighbor, reputed to have innovative and comprehensive health care practices, was responding to the health and mental health needs of its citizens. It seemed a natural time to share some knowledge.
