Abstract
The purpose of this chapter is to provide information on and a framework for the necessary and ongoing merger and collaboration between the positive behavior support (PBS) and mental health communities to provide effective services for families and their children who have challenging behaviors. While both communities have recognized the need to collaborate with families as equal decision-making partners, the process has evolved to another level with the recent promotion of family-driven care as a necessary characteristic of effective services. The findings and recommendations from the president's New Freedom Commission on Mental Health (2003) are serving as a catalyst to advance a transformation of mental health care in this country to a system that is family and consumer driven.
The integration of the PBS and mental health communities with families has the potential to achieve significant improvement in access to services and the outcomes of the receipt of services for children and youth who have emotional and behavioral disturbances. This is a time of great opportunity for advancement in achieving this goal, and this chapter presents information aimed at contributing to this effort.
