Aprašymas

Amid an upswing in gun violence, increasing suicide rates, and a lack of access to mental health care, many Americans strongly believe the country is in the midst of a mental health crisis. This volume presents a balanced exploration of the contentious issues surrounding mental health access, including opposing viewpoints on who should receive mental health services and disparities based on socioeconomic status and geographic location. Debates over the availability of certain treatments and the potential consequences of inadequate mental health services are explored from different perspectives, weaving together personal narratives and expert opinions. With increased rates of homelessness, incarceration, mass violence, and societal burdens for marginalized communities hinging on the availability of mental health services, this volume takes a close look at this ongoing debate in America.
