In this handbook, direct support staff who serve individuals with a wide range of disabillities - such as developmental disabilities and traumatic brain injuries - explore questions including: what is the purpose of helping? and why have I become involved in a helping profession?

"Wonderful book for people who provide any type of direct support in human services as well as those who manage or direct them. McMorrow's ideas are challenging to many human services assumptions and extraordinarily helpful themselves for providing foundational thinking people. I recommend it to every individual in a situation where they are called upon to help others."
Martin J. McMorrow, M.S., received his degree in behavior analysis and therapy from Southern Illinois University. He recently started a staff training and consulting company called Proactive Behavioral Design, Inc., and is Coordinator of Strategic Development and Growth at the Center for Comprehensive Services (CCS) in Carbondale, Illinois, which is part of the National Mentor ABI Netwrok. Marty co-developed the social skills training program Stacking the Deck, the language training program Looking for the Words and numerous other behavioral clinical interventions with his colleagues at the Behavior Research Lab at the Anna Mental Health and Development Center. He also led the design, implementation, and evaluation of the Personal Intervention Neuorbehavioral Rehabilitation Program at CCS. Having had numerous opportunities to interact with people with developmental disabilities, mental illness, and acquired brain injuries, Marty's primary interest is in translating behavioral technology into proactive and applicable interactions that will make a difference in the lives of both the people being helped and the people doing the helping-the subject matter of this book.
