Two factors that impede access to mental illness treatment are stigma and lack of health insurance. World Wars I and II increased awareness of mental health issues within the government and public through treating soldiers, leading to more funding. In the 1960s, mental health treatment shifted from institutions to community-based care due to new medications and a civil rights movement. This improved patients' lives but burdened communities when funding followed services instead of results. Persistent assumptions about mental illness stem from its invisibility and complexity, though effective diagnosis and treatment is now possible due to standardized criteria and evidence-based practices.

An Ecological Systems Theory Approach In Looking At Mental Health Care Barrie...
This document discusses barriers to mental health care access for Latinos in the United States. It begins by defining mental health and noting perceptions of mental illness in the Latino community. It then discusses the high prevalence of mental illness among Latinos and their low utilization of mental health services based on several key studies. The problem is that the growing Latino population in the U.S. has a high risk for mental illness but significantly underuses mental health care. Further examination of barriers is needed to address this challenge and meet Latinos' growing demand for mental health services. The purpose is to examine theories and practices affecting Latinos' service utilization through an ecological systems theory approach.
Assessing the Burden of Mental Illness in Jackson County
This document assesses the burden of mental illness among adults in Jackson County, Michigan. It applies published prevalence rates of various mental illnesses to estimate the number of adults affected in the county. An estimated 4,779 adults have a serious mental illness such as major depression or schizophrenia. Applying rates of other mental illnesses suggests up to 19-26% of adults under the Jackson Health Network's care may have a serious or any mental illness. Most needs would fall under the network's higher levels of care coordination rather than health coaching. Screening data from local practices shows opportunities for improving depression identification and treatment.

CHAPTER 15
15.1 INTRODUCTION
Although in some cases behavioral and psychiatric/mental are grouped under the same broad
category, behavioral health problems are generally effectively treated on an outpatient basis with
combination psychotherapy and pharmacotherapy (medications). Behavioral health professionals
are licensed by the state in which they reside to practice, and they collaborate on the management
of clients’ behavioral problems. These professionals include psychiatrists, psychologists,
psychiatric nurse practitioners, social workers, family counselors, and drug/alcohol and mental
health counselors (Parker, 2002). Such chronic problems as dementia and mental retardation are
considered psychiatric/mental problems rather than behavioral.
There is a distinct interconnectedness between mental health and health in general. The WHO
defines health as, “a state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being, and not merely the
absence of disease and infirmity” (WHO, 2001b, p. 1). Mental health on the other hand is defined
as, “a state of well-being in which the individual realizes his or her own abilities, can cope with the
normal stress of life, can work productively and fruitfully, and is able to make a contribution to his
or her community … it is determined by socioeconomic and environmental factors and it is linked
to behavior” (WHO, 2001a, p. 1; WHO 2010, p. 1). For example, people are generally resilient

Lilly Bloomington Illinois Dec 2009
The document discusses the fragmentation and costs of the mental health system in the US. It notes that mental illnesses lead to unnecessary disability, unemployment, homelessness, school failure and incarceration. The annual economic cost of mental illness in the US is estimated to be $79 billion. About 20% of jail populations have a serious mental illness. There is a lack of coordinated services across systems like law enforcement, treatment, housing, etc. This leads to poor outcomes for those with mental illnesses.
Kitchen j ss310-13-finalproject
The document discusses the deinstitutionalization of mental patients in the 1960s and its effects. It led to many mentally ill individuals being released from institutions and treated as outpatients through community mental health centers. However, many lacked adequate support and some became homeless or incarcerated as a result. The author has been personally affected as someone with mental illnesses who has utilized community treatment and been in institutions voluntarily. The deinstitutionalization influenced the author's studies and career focus on improving medication practices.

Mental Health Disparities Essay.pdf
Mental health disparities are a social problem that conflicts with social work values of equal access to care. Historically, groups like minorities and low-income individuals have faced unequal access. In recent decades, government and organizations have worked to address this through policies, research, and cultural awareness. Current state policies aim to reduce disparities through workforce training, data analysis, and addressing social determinants of health. As a clinical social worker, advocating for policy changes could help clients access necessary mental healthcare.
Psychological Illness and Crime Growing in Urban life by Dr.Mahboob Khan Phd
“I believe that -Weather it is MH 370 Co-Pilot or recent thane mass murderer these people have some sort of psychological illness in common and there is greater need to do psychological assessment of every one as a mandatory test”.Public opinion surveys suggest that many people think mental illness and violence go hand in hand. A 2012 national survey found, for example, that 60% of indians thought that people with schizophrenia were likely to act violently toward someone else, while 32% thought that people with major depression were likely to do so.

Depression is the foremost cause leading young population to death in the USA. According to Cockerham, depression is a mental disorder, which is caused by psychological, persistent social and biological pain. This leads to disinterest of social life and committing suicide. Yet, if depression is not treated, it may lead to dementia, stroke and heart attack. In the past six to ten years, researchers such as Disease Control and Prevention found that youngsters at the age of 18 to 24 years, experience depression and going through suicidal thoughts. Unlike citizens 45 to 65 years of age, reports have reported that deaths among these particular group have been significantly rising. Mental health illnesses have brought many US presidents attention, which most of them have taken various steps allowing easy access to treatments and medicines.

- To renovate the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, president Donald Trump came up with a different strategy, a new healthcare bill.
- Diminishing the amount of Medicaid is one of the undertaken steps of Donald Trump’s administration. This way, insurance plan will only cover substance use and mental issues meanwhile majority of them depend on low income.
- Obama signed an act, the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act. It is also known to be Obamacare, allowing the extension of federal mental parity to Medicaid.
- The purpose of the act is to support people with mental illnesses and people who are disable. In 2010, president Obama signed the Frank Melville Supportive Housing Investment Act.

Diversionary Problems Helping The Mentally Ill And Comorbid
This document discusses the issue of high rates of mental illness among incarcerated populations and alternatives to incarceration. It notes that the US currently has more mentally ill people in prisons than ever before, costing $15 billion annually. Treatment options like drug courts and rehabilitation centers are more cost-effective than incarceration. The document also cites studies finding 56% of state prisoners and 64% of jail inmates suffering from mental illness. It raises concerns that releasing these inmates without support may worsen homelessness, recidivism, and public safety issues. Effective treatment of the mentally ill and comorbid could have immeasurable benefits for individual health and community well-being.

Introduction
There are many sources of financing for mental health care in both the private and public sectors. Private sector financing includes private insurance, out-of-pocket payment and a modest amount of charitable and philanthropic sources (Garfield, 2011). In addition, the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (ACA) passed in 2010, which was discussed last week, will have a substantial impact on behavioral health financing.
The amount of funding for behavioral health care is substantial. Including those for the Affordable Care Act, private and public expenditures for mental health and substance abuse treatment are expected to be around $280.5 billion by 2020, an increase in spending from $171.7 billion in 2009. Growth in expenditures, however, will trail behind that of health care in general. This lesson will briefly discuss financing of the public mental health system.
Public sector financing includes Medicaid, Medicare and other sources of funding support at the federal, state and local level. The largest amount of funding from other public sources is primarily from the federal level, the Community Mental Health Services Block Grant. On the substance abuse side, the Substance Abuse Prevention and Treatment Block Grant is also a large source of financing.
Why examine the public mental health system? Garfield (2011) notes that there are differences in financing between general health and behavioral health in that “public s ...
Mental Health Court in the United StatesIndependent studyCJS400
This document provides an overview of mental health courts in the United States, including their history, policy, design, implementation, evidence-based practices, measurement of success, and recommendations. It discusses how a lack of community mental health treatment led to increased criminal justice involvement for those with mental illness. Mental health courts were developed as a post-booking diversion program to address this issue. The document outlines the key goals of mental health courts and the essential elements of effective court design and implementation, including cross-system collaboration, eligibility criteria, timely linkage to services, treatment supports, and ongoing performance assessment.

MENTAL AND EMOTIONAL WELL-BEINGPublic Health IssueMe.docx
The document discusses mental and emotional well-being as a public health issue. It analyzes how mental health impacts human development, socioeconomic status, and economic indicators in a nation. Specifically, it explores how mental disorders like depression can deteriorate economic levels and increase demands for identification and treatment of mental health issues. The document also examines the economic impact of mental health in areas like unemployment, personal income, and allocation of funds. It proposes policies to build community health services, promote self-care, and raise awareness of mental disorders to address America's high rates of mental illness.

CASP Workshop on Social Psychiatry
Canadian Psychiatric Association 72nd Annual Conference
Toronto, Ontario
October 27 – 29, 2022
Title:
Social Psychiatry Perspectives on the Health of Canadians:
A Social Psychiatry Manifesto & Intimate Partner Violence
Symposium Panel:
1. Vincenzo Di Nicola (Chair & Presenter, Montreal, QC)
2. Daphne Marussi (Presenter, Sherbrooke, QC)
Abstract:
This workshop sponsored by the Canadian Association of Social Psychiatry (CASP) reviews two contemporary Canadian psychiatric issues from a social psychiatry perspective:
1. Vincenzo Di Nicola (Montreal, QC) presents a social psychiatry manifesto with an overview of Social Psychiatry in the 21st century by surveying three main branches of Social Psychiatry: (1) psychiatric epidemiological studies and public health; (2) community psychiatry; and (3) relational and social therapies such as couple, family and community therapies. Implications for research, practice, and teaching in social psychiatry will be outlined.
2. Daphne Marussi (Sherbrooke, QC) explores Intimate Partner Violence (IPV) which describes an alarming aspect of relational violence with major social psychiatric consequences: the physical, sexual, or psychological harm by a current/former partner that is associated with many mental disorders from anxiety and depression to eating and substance abuse disorders. This presentation discusses different forms of psychological abuse and coercive control in IPV, the abused/abuser bond and their impacts and consequences.

This document discusses mental illness and the criminal justice system. It provides background on the history of how mental illness was treated, noting that until the mid-1900s there was little medical attention given to the mentally ill. It then explains that today around 15-24% of prisoners and jail inmates meet the criteria for a psychotic disorder. However, prisons are often ill-equipped to properly treat mental illness, and inmates with mental illness face higher risks of solitary confinement, assault, suicide or self-harm. The document concludes by noting that states that have expanded Medicaid under the Affordable Care Act have seen reduced crime and incarceration rates as more mentally ill individuals can access free treatment services.
New Asylums
This document discusses the issue of mentally ill patients being incarcerated in prisons rather than receiving treatment. It notes that around 16% of incarcerated individuals have a mental illness or history of hospitalization. Due to lack of psychiatric hospital beds, jails and prisons have become de facto psychiatric facilities. However, prisons do not provide adequate mental healthcare. Mentally ill inmates suffer harm from living in the same conditions as other prisoners. When released, inmates often do not receive continued treatment or support. Past proposals aimed to treat inmates while incarcerated, but more psychiatric facilities are ultimately needed to properly help the mentally ill.
community health method.docx
The document discusses conducting a community health needs assessment (CHNA) for senior citizens in the Hispanic community. The goals of the CHNA are to understand the current health status, risks, and resources for elderly Hispanics in order to identify issues and guide health improvement efforts. Methods of data collection and key community resources will be examined. The CHNA will provide insight to help address health needs and prioritize community health planning.

Summary This week’s lesson below focuses on the particular challenges facing certain groups who have specific challenges in accessing mental health services. These groups include, but are not limited to older adults, people living in rural areas and the homeless. Our readings address three other groups with significant challenges: the LGBTQ community, military personnel and veterans Much of the lesson focuses on the needs of Missourians but the issues are applicable to the rest of the nation as well. Older Adults
Approximately 20% of all adults aged 65 and older have been classified as having a mental disorder, including dementia (Karel, Gatz & Smyer, 2012). Issues related to aging can exacerbate mental health disorders when factors such as chronic illness, institutionalization, isolation, and grief are more likely to be present. Some mental problems, such as depression, also are associated with an increased risk for suicide. Data presented in Lesson 12 demonstrated that older adult white males have the highest suicide rate of any age/gender group in the state.
The majority of older adults receiving mental health care are treated by their primary care physicians (Administration on Aging (AA), 2001). While many primary care physicians provide excellent care, there are also many who confuse mental health problems with the debilities caused by chronic physical disease or may consider late onset mental illnesses to simply be a part of normal aging. When mental health treatment is attempted by these physicians, older adults commonly receive inappropriate prescription of psychotropic medications (AA, 2001). Despite these problems, both substance abuse and mental health problems in older adults are treatable and can often be prevented (Choi, N. G., & DiNitto, D., 2013). In addition to mental health treatment, activities geared toward preventing depression and suicide have proven to be effective. Specifically, both support groups and peer counseling have been shown to be effective for older adults at risk for depres ...

Operating Scenario
GPS/CDU Project for Wild Blue Yonder Technologies
Wild Blue Yonder Technologies Inc (WYBT) is a general holding company whose line of business is tailored to high-tech holdings. Wild Blue Yonder Technologies various subsidiary companies are maintained as one coordinated business from offices in New York City. The centralization of policy and planning direction at one location has historically produced higher revenues, profit margins, and customer satisfaction. The necessary degree of coordination is enabled by a global, enterprise network that is managed from the New York location.
That network provides secure telecommunications capability with embedded firewall protection, multi-carrier cellular access options and automatic access point database updates for all connection types. It enables access to the enterprise’s applications from any location on an as-needed basis. The network also provides integrated, any distance, seamless connectivity to WBYT’s centralized information resources.
WBYT’s holdings are concentrated in
advanced technology products
and services. Two closely held subsidiaries deal exclusively with the Federal government. The line of business of one, which is based in Gaithersburg, Maryland, is R&D and manufacture for advanced capability components for the F 16 Fighting Falcon and F 18 Super Hornet. The other, based in Jacksonville deals in R&D in target acquisition and fire control systems for Army helicopters. There is also a manufacturing facility in Detroit. That facility builds Leopard tanks for the Canadian Army under license from the German government. Other close holdings in WBYT’s empire include a commercial electronics R&D facility in Corvallis. The Corvallis facility also does contract work for the Idaho National Laboratory. In addition to the closely held corporations, there are loosely held electronics manufacturing, or service holdings in Pittsburgh, Houston, Des Moines, Sioux Falls, Denver and Bozeman. These facilities serve the consumer high-tech industry.
Finally, there are a number of loosely held international corporations in India, Australia and across the Pacific Rim, all concentrated in advanced technology. All computer services for that region are provided over
a public/private VPN
, which is maintained for that area in Singapore. The Singapore data center is actually owned and operated by WBYT, as part of the company’s global VPN. The VPN itself is maintained out of the New York office.
According to WBYT’s charter, the primary business goal of the Company is to utilize the global marketplace to provide high quality technology components at the lowest price possible price.
Wild Blue Yonder Technologies entered the market knowing that the ability to closely monitor its operation and deliver competitive business information quickly was going to be a prerequisite to its success, particularly in the integration and reuse of COTS products. In essence, its entire.

Appeals Process
Despite the efforts to submit claims that are "clean," denials, rejections, and partial payments will occur. When a facility receives a denial, rejection, or partial payment, a determination will need to be made regarding the action to be taken by the facility (accept the denial, rejection, or partial payment, resubmit the claim, or appeal).
For each reason in the table you downloaded, indicate the appropriate action (accept the denial, rejection, or partial payment, resubmit the claim, or appeal) and provide the rationale for your decision.

Mental Health Disparities Essay.pdf
Mental health disparities are a social problem that conflicts with social work values of equal access to care. Historically, groups like minorities and low-income individuals have faced unequal access. In recent decades, government and organizations have worked to address this through policies, research, and cultural awareness. Current state policies aim to reduce disparities through workforce training, data analysis, and addressing social determinants of health. As a clinical social worker, advocating for policy changes could help clients access necessary mental healthcare.

“I believe that -Weather it is MH 370 Co-Pilot or recent thane mass murderer these people have some sort of psychological illness in common and there is greater need to do psychological assessment of every one as a mandatory test”.Public opinion surveys suggest that many people think mental illness and violence go hand in hand.

Depression is the foremost cause leading young population to death in the USA. According to Cockerham, depression is a mental disorder, which is caused by psychological, persistent social and biological pain. This leads to disinterest of social life and committing suicide. Yet, if depression is not treated, it may lead to dementia, stroke and heart attack. In the past six to ten years, researchers such as Disease Control and Prevention found that youngsters at the age of 18 to 24 years, experience depression and going through suicidal thoughts. Unlike citizens 45 to 65 years of age, reports have reported that deaths among these particular group have been significantly rising.

Diversionary Problems Helping The Mentally Ill And Comorbid
This document discusses the issue of high rates of mental illness among incarcerated populations and alternatives to incarceration. It notes that the US currently has more mentally ill people in prisons than ever before, costing $15 billion annually. Treatment options like drug courts and rehabilitation centers are more cost-effective than incarceration. The document also cites studies finding 56% of state prisoners and 64% of jail inmates suffering from mental illness. It raises concerns that releasing these inmates without support may worsen homelessness, recidivism, and public safety issues. Effective treatment of the mentally ill and comorbid could have immeasurable benefits for individual health and community well-being.

Introduction
There are many sources of financing for mental health care in both the private and public sectors. Private sector financing includes private insurance, out-of-pocket payment and a modest amount of charitable and philanthropic sources (Garfield, 2011). In addition, the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (ACA) passed in 2010, which was discussed last week, will have a substantial impact on behavioral health financing.
The amount of funding for behavioral health care is substantial. Including those for the Affordable Care Act, private and public expenditures for mental health and substance abuse treatment are expected to be around $280.5 billion by 2020, an increase in spending from $171.7 billion in 2009. Growth in expenditures, however, will trail behind that of health care in general. This lesson will briefly discuss financing of the public mental health system.
Public sector financing includes Medicaid, Medicare and other sources of funding support at the federal, state and local level. The largest amount of funding from other public sources is primarily from the federal level, the Community Mental Health Services Block Grant. On the substance abuse side, the Substance Abuse Prevention and Treatment Block Grant is also a large source of financing.
Why examine the public mental health system? Garfield (2011) notes that there are differences in financing between general health and behavioral health in that “public s ...

Title:
Social Psychiatry Perspectives on the Health of Canadians:
A Social Psychiatry Manifesto & Intimate Partner Violence
Symposium Panel:
1. Vincenzo Di Nicola (Chair & Presenter, Montreal, QC)
2. Daphne Marussi (Presenter, Sherbrooke, QC)
Abstract:
This workshop sponsored by the Canadian Association of Social Psychiatry (CASP) reviews two contemporary Canadian psychiatric issues from a social psychiatry perspective:
1. Vincenzo Di Nicola (Montreal, QC) presents a social psychiatry manifesto with an overview of Social Psychiatry in the 21st century by surveying three main branches of Social Psychiatry: (1) psychiatric epidemiological studies and public health; (2) community psychiatry; and (3) relational and social therapies such as couple, family and community therapies. Implications for research, practice, and teaching in social psychiatry will be outlined.
2. Daphne Marussi (Sherbrooke, QC) explores Intimate Partner Violence (IPV) which describes an alarming aspect of relational violence with major social psychiatric consequences: the physical, sexual, or psychological harm by a current/former partner that is associated with many mental disorders from anxiety and depression to eating and substance abuse disorders. This presentation discusses different forms of psychological abuse and coercive control in IPV, the abused/abuser bond and their impacts and consequences.

Summary This week’s lesson below focuses on the particular challenges facing certain groups who have specific challenges in accessing mental health services. These groups include, but are not limited to older adults, people living in rural areas and the homeless. Our readings address three other groups with significant challenges: the LGBTQ community, military personnel and veterans Much of the lesson focuses on the needs of Missourians but the issues are applicable to the rest of the nation as well. Older Adults
Approximately 20% of all adults aged 65 and older have been classified as having a mental disorder, including dementia (Karel, Gatz & Smyer, 2012). Issues related to aging can exacerbate mental health disorders when factors such as chronic illness, institutionalization, isolation, and grief are more likely to be present. Some mental problems, such as depression, also are associated with an increased risk for suicide. Data presented in Lesson 12 demonstrated that older adult white males have the highest suicide rate of any age/gender group in the state.
The majority of older adults receiving mental health care are treated by their primary care physicians (Administration on Aging (AA), 2001). While many primary care physicians provide excellent care, there are also many who confuse mental health problems with the debilities caused by chronic physical disease or may consider late onset mental illnesses to simply be a part of normal aging. When mental health treatment is attempted by these physicians, older adults commonly receive inappropriate prescription of psychotropic medications (AA, 2001). Despite these problems, both substance abuse and mental health problems in older adults are treatable and can often be prevented (Choi, N. G., & DiNitto, D., 2013). In addition to mental health treatment, activities geared toward preventing depression and suicide have proven to be effective. Specifically, both support groups and peer counseling have been shown to be effective for older adults at risk for depres ...

The Case Against Instant Replay
Professional sports are a cornerstone of several global cultures. In the USA, the NFL, NBA, MLB, and to a lesser extent, the NHL are major industries that draw large in-person and televised audiences, and sell billions of dollars of merchandise, TV rights, sponsorships and endorsements, among other things.

Appendix A
Operating Scenario
GPS/CDU Project for Wild Blue Yonder Technologies
Wild Blue Yonder Technologies Inc (WYBT) is a general holding company whose line of business is tailored to high-tech holdings. Wild Blue Yonder Technologies various subsidiary companies are maintained as one coordinated business from offices in New York City. The centralization of policy and planning direction at one location has historically produced higher revenues, profit margins, and customer satisfaction. The necessary degree of coordination is enabled by a global, enterprise network that is managed from the New York location.
That network provides secure telecommunications capability with embedded firewall protection, multi-carrier cellular access options and automatic access point database updates for all connection types. It enables access to the enterprise’s applications from any location on an as-needed basis. The network also provides integrated, any distance, seamless connectivity to WBYT’s centralized information resources.
WBYT’s holdings are concentrated in
advanced technology products
and services. Two closely held subsidiaries deal exclusively with the Federal government. The line of business of one, which is based in Gaithersburg, Maryland, is R&D and manufacture for advanced capability components for the F 16 Fighting Falcon and F 18 Super Hornet. The other, based in Jacksonville deals in R&D in target acquisition and fire control systems for Army helicopters. There is also a manufacturing facility in Detroit. That facility builds Leopard tanks for the Canadian Army under license from the German government. Other close holdings in WBYT’s empire include a commercial electronics R&D facility in Corvallis. The Corvallis facility also does contract work for the Idaho National Laboratory. In addition to the closely held corporations, there are loosely held electronics manufacturing, or service holdings in Pittsburgh, Houston, Des Moines, Sioux Falls, Denver and Bozeman. These facilities serve the consumer high-tech industry.
Finally, there are a number of loosely held international corporations in India, Australia and across the Pacific Rim, all concentrated in advanced technology. All computer services for that region are provided over
a public/private VPN
, which is maintained for that area in Singapore. The Singapore data center is actually owned and operated by WBYT, as part of the company’s global VPN. The VPN itself is maintained out of the New York office.
According to WBYT’s charter, the primary business goal of the Company is to utilize the global marketplace to provide high quality technology components at the lowest price possible price.
Wild Blue Yonder Technologies entered the market knowing that the ability to closely monitor its operation and deliver competitive business information quickly was going to be a prerequisite to its success, particularly in the integration and reuse of COTS products. In essence, its entire.

Appeals Process
Despite the efforts to submit claims that are "clean," denials, rejections, and partial payments will occur. When a facility receives a denial, rejection, or partial payment, a determination will need to be made regarding the action to be taken by the facility (accept the denial, rejection, or partial payment, resubmit the claim, or appeal).
For each reason in the table you downloaded, indicate the appropriate action (accept the denial, rejection, or partial payment, resubmit the claim, or appeal) and provide the rationale for your decision.

APA FORMAT4-5 pagesConsider, hypothetically, a small community.docx
APA FORMAT
4-5 pages
Consider, hypothetically, a small community called Plainsville, Colorado, which has a critical rail line running through it. On this line, hazardous chemicals are routinely transported en route to a neighboring community (Southtown) where they are crucial for industrial use in manufacturing a certain type of nuclear defect x-ray material that is made nowhere else in the world. The rail line was first laid in the late 1800s and has been patchily maintained over its life.
Given new priorities through Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Grant Programs and state mandates, both the Plainsville community leaders and operators of the railway are concerned with increasing vulnerabilities associated with rail transport because there is evidence of structural decline due to its age and uneven maintenance. Serious damage to, or degradation of, the line in the vicinity of Plainsville might be catastrophic with worst-case consequences including: irreparable destruction of the rail; a train derailment; a chemical spill; the creation of a hazardous environment for people, livestock, and agriculture; disruption of the industrial manufacturing in Southland; and the possible economic crippling of the entire area. Any of these components alone could result in a crisis; yet a combination of these, or if combined in totality, would be a scenario considered unimaginable by Plainsville’s leadership and emergency management personnel.
By way of background, Plainsville has a "strong" mayor, meaning she is elected by the people rather than chosen by a council, etc. Based upon DHS grant dollars that have trickled down through her state and all-hazards homeland security region, Mayor Witley has determined that a commission in the form of a short-term task force should look at the vulnerabilities associated with the rail line. The commission would take the scenario outlined above, consider its many variations, study possible consequences while articulating and researching the problem(s) and receiving testimony from experts, and then make recommendations about courses of action to prevent, mitigate, or respond to any resultant crisis.
The issues at hand for the community include the integrity of the rail line, the prevention of a hazardous spill, the safety of the citizens, and the continuity of the neighboring town’s industry. (More issues may exist, but this gets you started.)
Consider and list at least 10 potential organizations that would either provide a representative to sit on the commission or that would provide information to the commission.
When listing each partner, describe his, her, or its value to the commission and what expectations the mayor (and others) might have as to the expertise, capabilities, resources, or anything else an individual or agency might contribute.
Choose the most relevant entities or individual experts you can, and think about everything from a public safety and emergency management perspective.

Fraud typically occurs when there is incentive or pressure to commit fraud, opportunity to carry out the fraud, and attitude or rationalization of committing unethical acts. At Enron, opportunity appeared most prevalent as lax internal controls allowed fraud to go undetected. The auditors of Enron failed to detect the fraud likely due to an improper audit that did not identify control weaknesses exploited by management.

State two (2) factors that impede access to mental illness treatment. Name two (2) ways WWI and WWII affected the awareness of mental health disorders among the federal government and the American public? Name one (1) result of that awareness? From colonial times through the 1960s, the primary mode of mental illness treatment was institutional. In the 1960s, mental health treatment shifted to a community-based orientation. Name two (2) factors responsible for this shift? What were the effects on patients and on the community? As mental illness treatment shifted from the institutional to the community setting, public dollars were allocated on the basis of units of service delivered, not on results of care. Discuss the implications of this policy on the deinstitutionalized severely mentally ill. The author states, “In contrast to widely held assumptions, mental disorders can now be diagnosed and treated as effectively as physical disorders.” Identify and discuss two (2) factors that have contributed to the persistence of erroneous assumptions about mental illness treatment. Identify one (1) factor that “allow mental disorders to be diagnosed and treated as effectively as physical disorders.”
