Securing Resources

Introduction

When we think of securing resources to help us promote mental health in the community, we generally think primarily of funding - that is, financial backing from government, social service agencies, business and industry, and public and private foundations. In this chapter we will explore various funding sources and ways of approaching them, but we will also look at alternatives to traditional funding sources and relationships -- new places to look for resources and support in your own community.
