Prevention
Preventing an illness from occurring is inherently better than having to treat the illness after its onset. A landmark report published by the National Institute of Medicine in 1994 extended the concept of prevention to mental health disorders. Rigorous scientific trials have documented successful prevention programs in such areas as dysthymia and major depressive disorders, conduct problems, and risky behaviors leading to HIV infection.
