The Anti-Community Mental Health "Movement"
Abstract
The author describes the opposition to community mental health that has developed among various professional and nonprofessional groups, indicating the reasons for their opposition. He believes that while coalitions will develop among several of the groups, there will be no unified anti-community mental health "movement." Community mental health advocates can help to meet the challenges of their critics by carrying on research and developing an adequate theoretical base for various forms of intervention.
