    Journal: Am J Orthopsychiatry; 2005 Jul; 75(3):409-20. PubMed ID: 16060736.
    Abstract:
    This article examines how social workers may use their authority to create managed mental health care organizations that support the principles and values of professional social work practice. By exploring research and theoretical contributions from a multidisciplinary perspective, the author suggests ways that social workers may incorporate empowerment strategies into their organizational practices to create more socially responsible and humane mental health organizations.
