With each edition of this journal, I am increasingly more proud and pleased with the articles we are able to share with you, our reading audience. We are tapping into expertise and innovative approaches to community mental health, receiving a burgeoning number of submissions from an expanding portfolio of contributors, from academic researchers to front-line clinicians, and from colleagues working around the globe. The definition of community mental health is evolving, the populations with whom we work are increasingly more challenging, and the systems of care in which we find ourselves are struggling to provide efficient, effective, recovery-oriented humane care in times when resources (financial, work-force, and leadership) are unpredictable.

As Editor, I plan to embrace this evolution and these challenges. As the official journal of the American Association of Community Psychiatrists, we want to maximize our capacity to share transformative information with our membership and with mental health colleagues around the world. We want to enhance our capacity to share ground-breaking evidence-based approaches to individual, population, and systems health and well-being.

To that end, we will be introducing some new segments to the journal. In addition to the phenomenal articles we are always thrilled to publish, we are going to be requesting review articles that will help us translate ideas and research into practice. We will be highlighting “cool tools” (updates, techniques, products, ideas) developing on the horizon that may help transform care, and allowing us to learn from one another. And I will be having guest contributors offer some thought provoking observations and opinions at the beginning of each issue.

Let me know what you think. Make suggestions and observations and critiques. Volunteer to be a reviewer. Continue with your submissions. We are eager to hear from you. Come join the (R)evolution.
