Abstract
Rather than becoming repositories for the community's seriously disturbed children, children's psychiatric hospitals need to develop milieu programs that involve trained child care staff and developmentally oriented child mental health professionals. Treatment programs should address the developmental needs and abilities of the various age groups and the particular developmental deficits reflected in their psychopathologies and should include a variety of treatment elements.
