lecture at Smith College School for Social Work Is Mental Health Dead? James W. Drisko, Ph.D., LICSW The Community Mental Health movement provided a vision for clinical social work that encompassed increasing human potential and expanding local service access. Now, behavioral health offers a different vision of returning consumers to pre-morbid baseline functioning. Has our professional vision changed as well? The lecture re-examines our aspirations as clinical social workers, and reviews the purposes of our services to clients of all types. The rhetoric of behavioral health and evidence-based practice will be deconstructed and alternatives for a larger vision of our professional purposes will be offered. References Beers, C. (1908).
