Abstract

This paper reports a number of areas of difficulty--funding issues, management and personal bias issues, theoretical issues--which emerged in the development of five treatment groups comprised entirely of depressed and suicidal patients. These groups reflected a coordinated effort between the city-county mental health system and the specific funding agencies. Strategies for overcoming these difficulties are dicussed.
