Dans cet article, l'auteur propose une définition de l'approche proactive qui commence à se répandre au Québec. L'approche proactive ou approche-milieu est un modèle d'intervention qui se caractérise par une importante décentralisation des services vers les petites communautés locales (ou quartiers) et une grande proximité entre les intervenants professionnels et les citoyens. Les caractéristiques de ce modèle d'intervention, ses avantages, de même que les difficultés d'opérationnalisation sont présentés en s'appuyant sur la description de quelques programmes qui ont tenté de le mettre en application

“…It underscores the need for regional networks of people and institutions who are willing to join forces in a dedicated effort to achieve the goals of community support (Wilson, 1989;Stroul, 1993). The participation of all stakeholders (clients, families, mental health and generic community services) in the development and implementation of a regional CSS is seen as a key factor for its success (Chamberlin et al, 1989;Guay, 1994;Carling, 1995). This article focuses on a crucial, initial step in this process, namely discussions with the relevant parties on the kind of support and services they feel are (most) needed in their own particular region.…”

Community Care: Exploring the Priorities of Clients, Mental Health Professionals and Community Providers

Co-ordinated joint service planning by all stakeholders is widely accepted as a valuable principle in the development of community support services for persons with severe mental illness. Even so, relatively little is known of the views and priorities of the different parties with regard to the elements that should make up the care and support system. This paper reports on a Dutch study in which clients, mental health care workers and community service professionals offered their opinions on what constitutes a support system that enables individuals with long-term mental illness to participate in the community. The results show that the respondents regarded a stable base as an essential prerequisite for the realisation of this objective. Within this general consensus, the clients stressed the importance of advocacy and sheltered meeting places; the mental health professionals emphasised the rehabilitative elements and the representatives of the generic community services felt that the key components in any such system were crisis intervention services and co-ordination at client and system level.

Interactions between group homes and neighbors: Neighbor preferences

Group homes often are in conflict with their neighbors. Consequently, group home administrators tend to minimize contact between group homes and neighbors to reduce conflict. This study examined whether information about group homes and contact between homes and neighbors are related to neighbor problems as well as the preferences of potential neighbors about ways in which to become informed and involved with a group home if one were built in their neighborhood. Neighbors who interacted with residents and staff identified problems with group homes but showed fewer concerns about and had positive attitudes toward group homes generally. Potential neighbors wanted information about group homes entering their neighborhood, and preferred types of contact were associated with positive attitudes toward group homes. Group home administrators should consider neighbors as potential allies to help residents integrate into the community rather than as sources of conflict that must be avoided.
