The Adolescent Mental Health Initiative is co-produced by the Annenberg Foundation Trust of Sunnylands, the Annenberg Public Policy Center, and Oxford University Press. It addresses some of the major mental health issues facing teenagers today--eating disorders, anxiety disorders, depression and schizophrenia. Of the books planned for the series, the first four focus on how parents and other adults can help afflicted teens overcome the disruptive and often devastating challenges of these disorders. Each book is an authoritative guide that offers essential information such as how to go about getting a diagnosis, what the laterest treatment options and prevention strategies are, how to help teens cope with mental illness at home and at school, and perhaps most important, what the warning signs and red flags are for parents and other adults to watch out for. --- from the publisher
