Transition to Adulthood: A Resource for Assisting Young People With Emotional or Behavioral Difficulties


Edited by Hewitt B. Clark, Ph.D., and Maryann Davis, Ph.D


 


 

Transition to Adulthood provides specific information about the population of adolescents with emotional or behavioral problems and the special challenges they face as they approach adulthood and the adult service system. It also describes recommended practices for helping them weather these transitions. This book is one in the Systems of Care for Children's Mental Health series edited by Beth A. Stroul and Robert M. Friedman that addresses current practices and system-level issues in child and adolescent mental health service delivery. Dr. Clark and Dr. Davis bring to this text their expertise in service delivery design, practice, and research.
