Abstract
In chapter 6, assumptions were listed related to: social class, ethnicity, and mental health; underserved and inadequately served population groups; community support systems; competency and power; and community and professional roles in mental health that undergird the Community Mental Health Empowerment Model. This chapter will consider the advantages of the neighborhood support systems approach utilized by the model within the general framework of those assumptions.
