Every year NICHCY receives thousands of requests for information and referral on mental health and mental illness. We have compiled this bibliography to help you identify the many materials available on these topics. This list is by no means exhaustive. You may identify additional resources by:

* looking in the bibliography/reference sections of any of the materials listed below;

* contacting organizations that address issues related to mental illness, including the National Alliance for the Mentally Ill, the National Mental Health Association, and the National Clearinghouse on Family Support and Children s Mental Health (all of which are listed under the list of "Publishers" at the end of this bibliography);

-- checking to see what materials the professional teachers' library in your area has available; and

-- checking to see what resources are available at any universities or colleges near your town; and

-- contacting teacher associations, organizations for administrators, or other professional groups to identify what resources on mental illness they make available for use by schools.

To assist you in obtaining the materials listed in this bibliography, the names, addresses, and telephone numbers of publishers are provided (in alphabetical order) at the end of this document. If you are interested in obtaining a resource, it's a good idea to contact the publisher and find out the latest payment and ordering procedures. These addresses and telephone numbers are, of course, subject to change without notice, as is the availability of the resources listed here.
