The Practice Guidelines described in this volume identify the types
of services, professional and support personnel, and agency

developmental disabilities who present with serious behavioral
concerns. These Practice Guidelines offer both (a) a template for use
by governmental and private agencies at local, regional, provincial,
and national levels to evaluate the status of current clinical and
related support services and (b) a blueprint for modifying or
expanding existing services to insure that unmet needs are addressed.
These Practice Guidelines address the following areas: The Assessment
Process (Guideline 1), Treatment and Related Supports (Guideline 2),
Behavioral Crisis Approaches (GuideIine 3), Data Systems for
Assessment of Treatment Plan Effectiveness (Guideline 4), Types and
Contexts of Treatment and Support Plan Services (Guideline 5),
Coordination of Services (Guideline 6), and Service Models for
Delivery of Services (Guideline 7). |

Human Needs and Intellectual Disabilities: Applications for Person
Centered Planning, Dual Diagnosis, and Crisis Intervention
Steven Reiss, Ph.D.
Human Needs and Intellectual Disabilities identifies the 12 human
needs most relevant to the lives of people with intellectual
disabilities, autism and related developmental disabilities. It
includes detailed, practical suggestions for caregivers or parents
interested in the happiness, quality of life, and self-determintion
of their loved ones or consumers. The book includes detailed,
practical suggestions for reducing episodes of challenging behavior
and psychiatric symptoms in people with a dual diagnosis
(intellectual disabilities and mental illness). It shows how to
substitute the language of individuality (e.g., "friendly
person") for the language of disability (e.g., "person with
disability"). It also reduces the tendency of planners to
confuse their own value system for that of the consumer. The
book includes scholarly reviews of dual diagnosis literature on
mental illness, prevalence, and assessment.

Positive Identity Development
Author: Karyn Harvey, PhD
Positive Identity Development is an exciting new approach to
treatment for individuals with intellectual disabilities. This
book provides a new theoretical perspective on treatment along with a
variety of innovative tools. It rejects reducing adults with
intellectual disabilities to a mere compilation of their behaviors
and promotes the use of a positive, therapeutic approach to each
unique individual. Psychologists, social workers and therapists
should be able to use the tools presented in this book to directly
enhance the effectiveness of the treatment they provide to adults
with intellectual disabilities. This book promotes well-being on
every level and explores a broad range of issues relevant to the life
and mental health of adults with intellectual disabilities
