Community Mental Health System for Children and Adolescents in Korea
Sungdo D. Hong 대한신경정신의학회 2006 PSYCHIATRY INVESTIGATION Vol.3 No.1
Objective: To review the current status of the community mental health system for children and adolescents in Korea. Method: Computer-aided literature review of articles and documents published by the Korean government. Results: In 2004, 24 community mental health centers participated in school mental health programs, and 500 community child centers provided various programs for protection, education, and cultural activities. Child and youth counseling services were supplied by 43 and 137 counseling centers, respectively. Approximately 23,500 children were enrolled in special schools. Throughout the year, about 4,000 cases of child abuse were reported from 38 child abuse centers and 35 probation and parole offices enlisted about 29,000 adolescents. Close to 19,000 children resided in 279 residential facilities of various kinds in the year 2003. Currently, roughly 2,100 adolescents enter training schools per annum. Conclusion: The community mental health system should balance mental health promotion, prevention, early intervention, and treatment. Mental health promotion and prevention ought to begin in preschool. A significant level of redundancy in services provided by the government and nongovernmental organizations (NGO) was noted calling for greater collaboration and integration. Community mental health system based on the system of care philosophy should be developed for youth with severe emotional disorders.
DNA testing for fragile X syndrome in school for severely emotionally handicapped children in Korea
Sungdo David Hong,Soyoung Lee,Myung Ryurl Oh,Dong Kyu Jin 대한의학유전학회 1998 대한의학유전학회지 Vol.2 No.2
Though Fragile X syndrome is one of the most common inherited causes of mental retardation, it is not much detected yet in Korean population. One of the reason may be that the syndrome is not well known to the special education teachers as well as to the clinicians in this country. Thus, molecular fest was undertaken to screen out fragile X syndrome in 122 children of two Korean schools for severely emotionally handicapped children. The subjects were all boys, previously known as having pervasive developmental disorder with or without mental retardation. Southern blot analysis of peripheral blood showed the abnormally enlarged (CGG)n repeat sequence associated with fragile X syndrome in two children. This finding suggests that the DNA testing for fragile X syndrome is warranted for Korean high risk population and that more concern about this syndrome is needed for the professionals who work for mentally handicapped children. The issues involved in genetic counseling for fragile X syndrome are discussed.
