  Copy   BIBTEX

Abstract

This report documents an important new development in practical philosophy: a philosophical discussion café whose primary focus is on mental health and mental healthcare related issues. Discussed are the benefits of this group to so-called mental healthcare ‘consumers,’ family members, friends, mental healthcare professionals and administrators. Also considered are concerns raised about the advisability of training senior university students to facilitate this type of café. Endorsement for the program is included in the form of feedback from various participants and students
