Abstract

[This paper examines some of the unique problems encountered by developing nations and the impact of such problems on the provision of preventive mental health services for children and youths. Several prerequisites for effective program delivery are reviewed and synthesized in order to formulate the broad outlines of a potential prevention model for developing nations. A brief analysis of the GAIN (Group Activities for Individual Needs) Program reveals some of the parameters of such a model.]
