The Transition to Adulthood Among Adolescents Who Have Serious Emotional Disturbance

Provides a summary of current knowledge concerning adolescents who have serious emotional disturbance, in terms of epidemiology, effective interventions, and program models. It will also serve as a technical assistance tool for those who are providing, or preparing to provide, services to these vulnerable youth. Because multiple perspectives are needed to address the problems faced by transitional youth, the authors have attempted to bring together a broad range of information.
