• Clinical Preventive Services in Substance Abuse and Mental Health Update: From Science to Services (SMA04-3906)
  Report
  This monograph explores the need for and value of preventive services for mental health and substance use disorders in health care settings. These disorders are widespread and costly, and they exact a high toll on our Nation and around the world. The World Health Organization (WHO) determined the “burden of disability” associated with one major mental illness, unipolar depression, ranked fourth among all leading causes of disability worldwide. By the year 2020, the disease burden from depression will rank number two, surpassed only by heart disease (Murray & Lopez, 1996). The disability and disease burden of various medical conditions were estimated by “disability-adjusted life years,” or DALYs. This global burden has been underrecognized in economic cost and the impact on social structure.

• Mental Health, United States, 2000 (SMA01-3537)
  Book/Monograph
  The preparation of Mental Health, United States, 2000 presented interesting challenges: How could we encapsulate the current status of mental health services for present and future readers? Of equal importance, how could we describe the current development of mental health statistics? To resolve these issues, we construct Section 1 with an editorial on likely future directions and a chapter on where the field has been over the past 100 years. These pieces set the essential context for Section 2, on the current status of mental health statistics; and Section 3, on the current status of mental health services. Each of these sections is new to Mental Health, United States, 2000. Section 4, as in all previous editions, updates the National statistical picture for mental health
