Full Service Schools describes the movement to create an array of integrated support services in schools that respond to the declining welfare of many American families and the rising "new morbidities of sex, drugs, violence, and stress among youth.Increasingly, health, mental health, and social service agencies are locating their programs in schools, where they offer health screening, psychological counseling, drug prevention, parent education, and other important services. This vision of a full service school-a new environment that brings together in one place innovative schooling and "everything else" that children, youth, and families need to make it-is currently gaining momentum through grass roots efforts and state and federal legislative initiatives. Joy G. Dryfoos describes these programs and the services they provide, and she explains how they are organized, staffed, and funded. She builds a compelling case for broad public commitment to improving the social environments in disadvantaged communities. Full serviced schools are indeed the wave of the future. They are responsive to today s problems. They are potentially cost effectibe. And they are well received by students, parents, and school people. Dryfoos provides us with the examples and information we need to turn the full service vision into a reality.
