"Many people with serious mental illness want to work. IPS was the
watershed moment that definitively advanced vocational
rehabilitation in this regard. In this single text, Drake, Bond,
and Becker, like the front line of a star football team, lay out
their program and its 20-year body of research supporting it. The
future of work for those psychiatrically disabled is many times
brighter as a result." -- Patrick W. Corrigan, Psy.D.,

of Psychology, Illinois Institute of Technology
"This book is a tour de force from the creators of the IPS approach
to supported employment. The authors cogently and comprehensively
present the research foundations, placing it squarely in the world
of evidence-based practices. It is informative and provides a
thorough introduction to everything a general reader would want to
know about IPS supported employment."-- Howard H. Goldman, M.D.,
Ph.D., Professor of Psychiatry, University of Maryland School
of Medicine
"The IPS model of supported employment is the most empirically
validated approach to vocational rehabilitation for people with a
serious mental illness, with evidence drawn from numerous studies
conducted in the U.S. and abroad. In this volume for the first
time, Drake, Bond, and Becker bring together and synthesize the
abundant research on IPS to describe the origins and development of
the model, its effects on competitive work and other outcomes,
costs and
economic outcomes, and implementation issues. This valuable,
concisely written book is a treasure trove for anyone interested in
improving the vocational functioning of people with a serious
mental
illness, including vocational counselors and their supervisors,
program planners and policy makers, researchers, and students in
the fields of psychiatric rehabilitation, clinical psychology, and
social work." -- Kim T. Mueser, Ph.D., Executive Director, Center
for Psychiatric Rehabilitation, Boston University
"Work represents one of the most fundamental ways in which a person
can be a vital member of a community and of society. Yet, in many
countries, most people with severe mental health problems are
unemployed, making social participation and full citizenship the
more difficult. In high-income countries, the leading
evidence-based method to promote employment among such people is
Individual Placement and Support (IPS). Bob Drake, Gary Bond, and
Deborah Becker are
the undisputed pioneers in this field, and this book is therefore
essential reading for everyone interested in this topic. Both clear
and comprehensive, this book serves as the best possible
introduction to the rationale and the practice of IPS. The
continuing refinement, adaptation, and implementation are some of
the most important challenges facing mental health care today." --
