Michael B. Friedman's Writings

Welcome!  This website contains my writings about mental health policy, social advocacy, social work, and political philosophy.  Some of these writings have been published; some are works in progress.  Some are OP-EDs; some are statements made at public hearings; some are reports; some are background materials on policy issues; and a few are academic publications.

The primary purpose of this website is to provide access to my writings to my students and to colleagues. Others who are interested or who just stumble onto the site via Internet searches are, of course, also welcome.    

You are all invited to comment via E-mail.  Just click on the "Contact" box on the side of this page.  I will respond to your comments as quickly as I can. 

I have not structured this website to provide a forum for public dialogue about the issues.   I may do that in the future.  Let me know if you think that would be interesting and useful.
