Aims & Scope
New information on psychiatric disability and rehabilitation is increasing rapidly. The American Journal of Psychiatric Rehabilitation maintains a goal of sharing new and important information with all persons invested in rehabilitation care and treatment. The American Journal of Psychiatric Rehabilitation is written for providers who offer rehabilitation services and is also for persons with psychiatric disabilities. It is for family members and others who are close to people with psychiatric disability. It is for advocates looking for a forum to express their vision and is also key reading for administrators and policy makers to provide them with guidance in their plans for future program development.
The American Journal of Psychiatric Rehabilitation features original research papers on psychiatric rehabilitation. Theoretical papers, reviews, and commentaries are encouraged if they contribute substantially to current knowledge. Reports of novel ways to reduce barriers and promote implementation of evidence practice in real world settings and to enhance access and retention of minorities in psychiatric rehabilitation programs are also encouraged. First person accounts that reflect on the rehabilitation process and recovery are also appropriate.
Given that psychiatric rehabilitation is a multi-faceted concept, paper topics within psychiatric rehabilitation may include, but are not limited to:
- rehabilitation interventions
- stigma
- recovery and empowerment
- needs and goals assessment
- community-based supported services
- co-occurring disorders
- skills training
- relevant public policy
- integration with criminal justice and primary health care systems
- consumer operated services and peer support
- cognitive approaches and family services
- staff training and team development
