As a result of these years of observation and service, I have concluded that the effort to help our clients neutralize and counteract forces and conditions that corrupt psychological well-being, inhibit emotional stability, negate inherent potential, and limit productive living must do more than facilitate individual transformation; we must also cultivate capacities in our client-constituency that will enable them to address, challenge, and neutralize external conditions and sources of psychosocial and emotional violence.
