In Service to Your Community: A Field Survival Guide for Community-Based Services Professionals

In Service to Your Community is a sometimes tongue-in-cheek, informative guide to assist new and veteran staff with their on-the-job training in basically any setting providing community-based services. It is designed to appeal to a wide range of adult learners.

In Service to Your Community has two purposes: (1) to provide information to front line community mental health and social services workers to increase their competency and (2) to decrease staff turnover, which can lead to higher quality outcomes, making the agency more desirable to stakeholders.
