National Institute on Mental Health Needs Stronger Prevention Focus

COMMENTARY

National Institute on Mental Health Needs Stronger Prevention Focus

By Dr. Carl C. Bell
Chief Executive Officer
Community Mental Health Council
Februay 2011
Dr. Carl Bell
My life's work has been about not only treating mental illness but preventing it.
That's why on Friday, Jan. 14, the day before the birthday of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., I resigned from the prestigious National Institute on Mental Health's Mental Health Advisory Council. My reasoning? The NIMH spends a measly 5% of its budget on its fourth objective, which is "Strengthening the Public Health Impact of NIMH Supported Research."
Meanwhile, the agency spends 59% of its annual funds (about $1.5 billion) on objective No. 1, "Promote Discovery in the Brain and Behavioral Sciences to Fuel Research on the Causes of Mental Disorders"; 14% on objective No. 2, "Chart Mental Illness Trajectories to Determine When, Where, and How to Intervene"; and 21% on objective No. 3, "Develop New and Better Interventions That Incorporate the Diverse Needs and Circumstances of People With Mental Illnesses."
I had been appointed to the agency's mental health advisory council 4 years ago by the former secretary of Health and Human Services. In addition to the many other efforts with which I've been involved over the years on preventing mental illness, I have worked for more than 6 years on the Prevention in Action column that runs periodically on these pages. My commitment to prevention led me to conceptualize the column, and Diana Mahoney of this newspaper's New England Bureau brings it to fruition several times a year. In other words, I believe firmly that public policy, social capital, and actual capital should be directed toward preventing psychiatric problems.
My reality is simple: The purpose of science is to discover new knowledge, and without applying that knowledge, what's the point? The NIMH has used a lot of taxpayer money to learn a great deal about how to help people with mental disorders. Unfortunately, much of NIMH's research does not get used to help people as mental health professionals rarely use it. To make matters worse, robust evidence shows that there are several evidence based prevention interventions (see Preventing Mental, Emotional, and Behavioral Disorders Among Young People: Progress and Possibilities [Washington: National Academies Press, 2009] and treatmentinterventions, which, if used, could help a ton of suffering people. However, for reasons that escape me, the NIMH seems reluctant to research how to implement these prevention and treatment innovations.
I understand that the NIMH is a mental health research institute and that the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration SAMHSA) is the implementation arm that puts innovations into practice. ( Just recently, the Centers for Disease Control has begun to pay attention to mental health.) The problem is that the SAMSHA is not supposed to do research, and our nation desperately needs research on how to implement evidence-based treatments and, more importantly (from a public health perspective), prevention interventions. Per its own objectives, NIMH is supposed to provide funding to do research on implementation. But, allocating 5% toward that objective is indefensible - and reprehensible.
The NIMH does not have a scientific clue about why most of its efficacious randomized, controlled trial prevention and treatment interventions are not being used. The NIMH does not have a clue about how to increase uptake of science that could help millions of people improve their lives and, potentially, never become mentally ill in the first place. I could not in good conscience sit in that room approving great research that would never be used. After all, it was the day before Dr. King's birthday.
I regret removing my advocacy from this body. But after 3 years, it became clear to me that my concerns were being met with platitudes, as the money had not shifted toward public health.
The cosmetic tokenism represented by NIMH's public health agenda is a poor use of our tax dollars.

Teen joblessness may hit record in summer 2011


Teen joblessness may hit record
in summer 2011
(Reuters) - A record-low one in four U.S. teenagers will land a summer job in the coming months as a result of a still-poor job market and lost federal funding, according to a report issued on Monday.
As a consequence, urban studies experts said cities like Chicago -- where summer unemployment among African-Americans aged 16 to 19 years approaches 90 percent -- could experience a rise in street violence.
"Both national and local leadership continue to ignore the plight of youth who are most at risk for potential violence as a result of being left on the streets in the summer months when crime is at its most explosive," Chicago Urban League President Andrea Zopp said in a statement.
The summer employment rate among U.S. teen-agers this year was projected at between 25 percent and 27 percent, based on an analysis of four decades of employment trends by Andrew Sum of the Center for Labor Market Studies at Northeastern University in Boston. That would be a post-World War Two low, while as recently as 2006 the teen summer employment rate was 37 percent.
U.S. economic growth has been sluggish since the recession ended in June 2009, with job growth lagging the recovery and unemployment still at a lofty 8.8 percent.
The long-term impact of higher summer joblessness among young people is a less-experienced work force and increased government spending due to lower lifetime earnings, reduced tax revenues and higher prison costs, experts said.
In Chicago alone, nearly 700 children were hit by gunfire last year, with 66 deaths, though the city's overall murder rate declined, said Jack Wuest, executive director of the Alternative Schools Network which commissioned the report.
"We cannot continue to ignore the correlation between youth violence and teen employment," Wuest said. "We know if our teens are in school or at a job they are not on the streets."
Federal stimulus dollars directed to cities and applied to summer jobs programs have run out and the funding was not renewed by Congress, meaning 18,000 more Illinois teen-agers will be jobless this summer, according to the report.

Education: 5 Things College Students do to Ruin their Lives

Education: 5 Things College Students do to Ruin their Lives

By Boyce Watkins, PhD

August 14, 2009

As a college professor for the past 16 years, I've noticed two things about college: It can be a place to make your dreams come true, and it can also be a breeding ground for your worst nightmares. So, I thought I would compile a list of things that I've seen college students do to ruin their lives over the years. Hopefully, you and your child can learn from what I am about to share.
1) Sex, drugs, alcohol and gambling
College is a great place to pick up a lot of really bad habits. The worst part is that people tell you that these things are ok. It's not that all of these are bad things to do, but at the very least, they should be done in moderation. It doesn't matter if you are in college: If you have sex with too many people, you are going to catch a disease or get pregnant. If you use drugs, you are going to become a drug addict. If you drink too much, you will become an alcoholic. Gambling can also ruin your life as much as drugs or alcohol. I have several dozen friends with really messed up lives to this day, all of whom started their downward spiral on a college campus. You should not think that because you are in college, you are immune to these problems. If something doesn't feel right, then you shouldn't do it. Be mature enough to make smart decisions.
2) Falling for the credit card scams and ruining your credit
There are no serious credit card scams in college, only the little people who stand out in front of the bookstore trying to get you to take their "free money". Credit cards are very tempting when you are in school, especially since you are broke. If you decide to take one, make sure that you are very careful with how much you buy with the card, and that you have a careful plan to pay it all back. Putting yourself in over your head can easily destroy your credit. That is not a good cycle to get into. Not taking care of your student loan obligations can ruin your credit as well. You should manage your debt as best you can, because if you don't, it can take decades to fix the problems that are created.
3) Working too much outside of school and forcing yourself to drop out
Getting a job in school is not a bad thing to do. In fact, it builds character. But you should work only to support your basic needs. If you find yourself working non-stop in order to pay for things that you shouldn't be buying in college, then that is when it is time for you to settle down and reconsider your priorities. Your professors are not going to care if your grades are in the toilet because you are engaged in too many outside activities. It is your responsibility to keep up in class. You will have the rest of your life to work, make money and buy all the things that you want. If you do it all too early, you are going to kill your chance to ever have the finer things in life. My mother used to say to me that "People who work hard before they are 24 get to party hard when they are 30." I didn't understand that then, but when I was 31 years old bringing in the New Year on a cruise ship in the Bahamas, I understood what she meant.
Additionally, the temptation to leave school for "just a little while" may seem to make sense, but it doesn't. Most Americans never graduated from college, but most of us went to college for at least a while. For many college drop outs, the distraction may have seemed temporary at the time, but turned out to be quite permanent. Don't get off the educational track, because the hurdles of the real world can be very deceptive.
4) Screwing up their freshman year
There are a ton of students out there who are spending every waking moment of their Sophomore, Junior and Senior years trying to compensate for the massive mistakes made during their Freshman year. If you get off to a bad start, you're asking for serious trouble all through college. You will have to do 10 miles of work to get 5 miles of reward. Don't put yourself in that position if you can avoid it. The best way to avoid problems in the freshman year is to use a consistent study strategy. That means, you should set aside at least 5 hours per day in which you go to a secluded spot in the library and stay there. Make sure that no one else is around. You can do whatever you want for the rest of the day, but make sure that your studies get their proper attention. After you've put in your class and study time, you will have a good 5 or 6 hours a day to have all the fun you want, especially on the weekends (remember: there are 168 hours in a week. If you are in class for 15 hours, sleep for 56 and study for 42, you still have about 55 hours left for parties! That's a lot of party time!)
5) Pledging a fraternity or sorority too early
The quickest way to ruin your GPA and put yourself on a downward spiral in college is to pledge a fraternity or sorority during your freshman year. Some frats and sororities are responsible enough to make sure that they don't allow freshmen to pledge. But even if they are not as a freshman, you should not allow yourself to pledge until you've had a good academic year. If you are still struggling academically after your freshman year, you should wait and pledge the grad chapter. You will have the rest of your life to be part of the group, and you can still go to the parties and have lots of fun without being in the organization. I never pledged, but I had friends in every fraternity. The difference was that I didn't have an obligation to anyone, but I had respect for people in all the different greek organizations.
Education matters more than almost anything you'll ever do you in life. If you blow the opportunity over foolishness, you'll spend the rest of your life regretting it.

The Illinois House of Representatives Committee on Elementary & Secondary Education just passed Senate Bill 7


Dear Supporter of Performance Counts,

The Illinois House of Representatives Committee on Elementary & Secondary Education just passed Senate Bill 7 (formerly known as Performance Counts) unanimously with a vote of 24-0!

SB7 will now go to the House floor for a full vote, putting us one step away from the Governor’s desk for signature.

Will you contact your Representative and ask them to support SB7?

Seeing unparalleled support in the Senate with a unanimous vote of 59-0, continued support in the House Education committee voting 24-0, an inclusive process of consensus between stakeholders, and a groundswell of grassroots support from people just like you - Illinois is on track to be a national leader in keeping children at the center of education policy by:

  • Ensuring our children have the best educators in their classroom by making performance count in personnel decisions.
  • Ending the detrimental practice of ‘last in, first out’ during difficult budget cut layoffs - our best teachers should stay in the classroom regardless of seniority.
  • Allowing the City of Chicago to substantially lengthen the school day and the school year, so our students receive the instruction time and richer curriculum they need.

If passed, we will give our schools the tools needed to build a culture of success and vibrant learning institutions. Now is the time to make this happen.

Please take action right now to ask your Representative to vote YES on SB7.

Thank you and we’ll keep you posted as this historic piece of legislation keeps moving.

Standing with you,

Jonah
