FAMILIES COPING WITH MENTAL ILLNESS
"Invaluable in empowering families to become part of the treatment and rehabilitative process."
William A. Anthony, Ph.D. Executive Director, Center for Psychiatric Rehabilitation, Boston University, Boston, MA
Ten parents and siblings share their experiences of dealing with family members suffering from schizophrenia or bipolar disorder over periods ranging from three to 40 years. Designed to provide insight and support to other families, the tape also has profound messages for professionals about the needs of families when mental illness strikes one of their own.
*BONUS - This DVD also contains both the 22 and 37 minute version of the program INVISIBLE WORKFORCE - examines the value of work/having a job to those in recovery from mental illness and explains some of the special considerations and arrangements that promote success.
