Editorial Reviews
From the Back Cover
REACH – an apt and popularly used acronym by many organisations to reflect services that are easily available and for the community. An easy read with a “how-to” intent, this book provides the insights and process of a practical and viable community mental health team. The authors of the book have produced a book which is as close an account to the reality of making the REACH team a value add to the mental wellness of students. This is the first book in Singapore that details the synergy of the various levels of decision making to enable a child and adolescent community mental health team to take shape, allowing hospital staff to reach students and service providers of the primary care levels.
REACH Singapore is forward looking and constantly open to improvements and change. Its hope is that as it moves to new heights in service delivery, others would have started to emulate and start their cycle of the life-giving process of community mental health to child and adolescents in their own systems.
