Subject: Re: HCHY List: Assets and Mental Health?<br>
<br>
Hello <st1:City w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Nancy</st1:place></st1:City>,<br>
<br>
As a school counselor, I see the Developmental Assets as a goal-setting tool.
Clients refer to a concrete list for celebrating strengths, as well as setting
specific and doable goals. Hat tip to Marilyn Peplau for introducing me
to the "Strengths Interview."<br>
<br>
I<st1:PersonName w:st="on">'</st1:PersonName>ll be interested to read the rest
of the data you gather related to this subject. Thanks for posing the
question!<br>

<br>
I have received a number of calls this month asking how people are using the
Developmental Assets in Mental Health settings. I have a few stories I<st1:PersonName
w:st="on">'</st1:PersonName>ve gathered over the years, but need to revisit
this topic. If you are a mental health provider making use of the asset
framework in your practice, or you know of someone who is, I would like to
learn more. How does a strength-based approach contribute to your work? How, if
at all, has it changed your interactions with clients? What impact do you see
in clients<st1:PersonName w:st="on">'</st1:PersonName> lives? What impact has
it had on how you think about your work? Thanks in advance for sharing your
on-the-ground wisdom. Feel free to write to the listserv, or to contact me
directly. I<st1:PersonName w:st="on">'</st1:PersonName>ll summarize what I
learn for the listserv.<br>
