Such lessons are learned in the \"school of hard knocks\"-long after the degree has been awarded. \u003cbr\u003e In this book, Jared Balmer, Mike Bulloch, and Kimball DeLaMare provide insights into the challenges of operating a variety of therapeutic milieus. In turn, they discuss ways to prevent or meet, head-on, a host of distractive forces in the milieu process. \u003cbr\u003e Drawing on their vast experience, the authors identify seven critical areas that must be considered when charged with operating a supportive milieu.
