Community mental health and the community college.
This paper represents one solution to the present mental health dilemma facing today's colleges and universities--static or declining services in the face of increased student needs. What is unique to this solution is that it developed out of a collaborative interaction between a community college and a prototype of a community mental health center in the same geographical area. Multiple interfaces between systems and various members within these systems were established in an effort to provide improved mental health services and the training of all personnel so involved to a higher level of professional functioning.
