Unconditional Care in Context
"In an earlier book (Sprinson and Berrick, 2010) we described a model for intervention with system-involved children and their families. This model was an effort to integrate three quite different ways of thinking and quite different approaches to assessment and intervention into a single, unified framework. The three "streams" gathered together in this model were relational, behavioral and ecological. The relational stream leveraged key insights from attachment theory. The behavioral stream was a fairly direct application of intervention concepts from learning theory. The ecological stream was described as a "fundamental third leg" of assessment and intervention, complementing the relationa...

After decades of reform, America's public schools continue to fail particular groups of students; the greatest opportunity gaps are faced by those whose achievement is hindered by complex stressors, including disability, trauma, poverty, and institutionalized racism. When students' needs overwhelm the neighborhood schools assigned to serve them, they are relegated to increasingly isolated educational environments. Unconditional Education (UE) offers an alternate approach that transforms schools into communities where all students can thrive. It reduces the need for more intensive and costly future remediation by pairing a holistic, multi-tiered system of supports with an intentional focus on...
Drugging Our Children
This book exposes the skyrocketing rate of antipsychotic drug prescriptions for children, identifies grave dangers when children's mental health care is driven by market forces, describes effective therapeutic care for children typically prescribed antipsychotics, and explains how to navigate a drug-fueled mental health system. Since 2001, there has been a dramatic increase in the use of antipsychotics to treat children for an ever-expanding list of symptoms. The prescription rate for toddlers, preschoolers, and middle-class children has doubled, while the prescribing rate for low-income children covered by Medicaid has quadrupled. In a majority of cases, these drugs are neither FDA-approved...
