For more than two decades, this uniquely positioned newsletter, HARVARD MENTAL HEALTH LETTER, has delivered information, current thinking and debate on mental health issues that concern professionals and laymen alike.

In the ever-changing and complex field of mental health care, the newsletter has become a trusted source for psychiatrists, psychologists, social workers, and therapists of all kinds.

But perhaps its more important contribution has been to the families of those affected with mental illness. By providing information, explanation, treatment protocols and therapies for problems such as schizophrenia, depression and mood disorders, obsessive-compulsive disorder, and alcohol and drug abuse, HARVARD MENTAL HEALTH LETTER has shed new light on these complex and often puzzling conditions.

Written authoritatively for the professional, the articles are also accessible and insightful to the lay reader. The newsletter is edited by Michael C. Miller, M.D., Assistant Professor of Psychiatry at Harvard Medical School. It reaches 50,000 subscribers, 30% of whom are not mental health professionals but interested laypersons.
