dr. wendy greene, assistant director of trauma and critical care and program developer, screening, brief interventions and referral to treatment program, howard university hospital, washington, dc. fran, what is the definition of behavioral health, and how do we distinguish between prevention, early intervention, and treatment within that definition? the definition for behavioral health for samhsa is we are taking the substance abuse and mental health prevention, intervention, and treatment programs, and we are encasing it within the disorder realm. so substance abuse, prevention, intervention, and treatment are exactly the same, same levels, and so is mental health. we are finding that mental health properties for prevention, especially, are very similar to the properties of substance abuse, and treatment is different in one respect, but the intervention to get people into treatment is very similar. it is similar, but there are differences between the treatment aspect of substance use disorders and mental illnesses, correct? yes, there are. we have different treatment centers for substance abuse. we often have centers for treatment. in menta

howard. i think you've got a point. here's this weekend, the president speaking at the dr. martin luther king formal dedication here in washington. he alluded to the movements in the streets. here he is, i think, trying to tie into the strong sentiment against wall street. here's what he said. >> those with power and privilege will often decry any call for change as divisive. they'll say any challenge to the existing arrangements are unwise and destabilizing. dr. king understood that peace without justice was no peace at all. if he were alive today, i believe he would remind us that the unemployed worker can rightly challenge the excesses of wall street without demonizing all who work there. >> this is going to call for some real leadership by the president, david and howard. he's going to have to find a way to distill for the movement in the streets the right cause for him. something he believes in. whether it's equality of tax, or some removal of the capital gains tax, he doesn't want to say it, but that's what he's talking about, getting rid of that 15% tax rate on money

dr. greene, we were talking about certain prevention-prepared communities. within that can you talk a little bit about what role hospitals... and you know-and we are using howard university hospital as an example-are doing or should be doing in order to engage in these efforts? i am glad you asked that question, ivette. the hospital has suicide prevention, suicide groups as well as recover... people who have recovered from post-traumatic stress disorder. so there are some groups to help and address some of these issues, but there is still a larger community that we need to get help to. the identifying and screening, not only for just substance abuse but for the mental health that jordan was talking about previously so you can identify patients a little earlier. you start seeing the patterns: this person got shot last year, now they got shot this year, they're under the age of 17 and as a trend may go... that third time may be a fatal one. so getting the family involved, getting the child protective services, getting our community involved to really try to address some of the greater issues that may be going on and not just putting the patient right back out on
