The NIMH Depression Awareness, Recognition, and Treatment Program: structure, aims, and scientific basis
DA Regier, RM Hirschfeld, FK Goodwin, JD Burke Jr, JB Lazar and LL Judd
Affective and Anxiety Disorders Research Branch, NIMH, Rockville, MD 20857.
Unrecognized, untreated, and undertreated depressive disorders extract an
inordinate human and economic cost, despite the availability of an
extensive array of effective clinical interventions. To enhance the
availability and quality of care, the National Institute of Mental Health
launched the Depression Awareness, Recognition, and Treatment Program, a
multiphase information and education program designed to alert health
professionals and the general public to the fact that depressive disorders
are common, serious, and treatable. The authors review the development of
this program, describing the professional education efforts it supports in
anticipation of increased demand for services, the public education
campaign launched in May 1988, and highlights of the scientific advances
that make the program feasible and timely.
