Bringing about a balance.

Abstract

Kupers' comment on the cyclical nature of the recent history of mental health in the United States is important and hopeful. Another dimension of the current public mental health scene is the decrease of the federal role in the overall system. This role has been a critically important one in the recent past. Hopefully, it will be restored to its full capacity as the country strives for a balanced system of mental health care for all its citizens.

Costs of clubhouses: an international perspective.

Costs of providing psychosocial rehabilitation services are analyzed using data from clubhouse programs in 12 countries. We explored effects of several program operating characteristics on total program cost per year, cost per member per year, and cost per visit. We also examined the relationship between program costs and the range of services offered. Clubhouse costs were found to be a function of the country in which the program was located, program age, and certification status. The number of specific services offered was not related to cost. Findings provide a more complete understanding of the operations and expenses of clubhouses.
