This article is based on a study done to develop and field test a measure of coping with symptoms specifically designed for use with persons diagnosed with severe mental illness. Findings are reported on both the development of the Coping with Symptoms Checklist and the initial field trial conducted to examine reliability and validity. Reliability was assessed by computing coefficient alpha, and validity was assessed by examining convergent and discriminant correlations. According to the authors, findings suggest that the measure is a generally reliable and valid way of assessing how persons diagnosed with severe mental illness cope with their symptoms. (Authors)

The Albuquerque Health Care for the Homeless Program in Albuquerque New Mexico has a wonderfully developed art program. They have sold their art work in different venues and it has been a significant source of pride and connection for the clients and the providers working in the program.

What kinds of art therapy programs/projects are others using in their work with people experiencing homelessness?
