abstract: 'This article details the clinical foundations of a social work focused

  community-based participatory research project promoting women''s mental

  health during and around the time of pregnancy. Specifically, we discuss

  the theoretical, empirical and organizational implementation of an

  enhanced engagement model of mental health service delivery that

  integrates evidenced based practices into the structure and services of

  an existing non-profit maternal and child health home visiting agency.

  The model is grounded in literature addressing barriers to accessing

  mental health care among minority women living in low-income

  communities. We discuss informing the intervention through direct

  consumer involvement, as well the rationale supporting the inclusion of

  Interpersonal Psychotherapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy into the

  design and implementation of the model which emphasizes adequate

  training of staff with varying levels of mental health experience.

  Finally, we describe typical client situations and responses reflected

  by the Enhanced Engagement model and discuss future implications of this

  approach as a way to offer meaningful intervention to women and families

  who may not have access or eligibility to utilize specialty mental

  health services.'
