Permission to archive report in repository granted by Rachel Volberg, Gemini Research.A sample of 400 Native Americans living in North Dakota counties with significant proportions of Native American residents was interviewed regarding their gambling involvement and problematic gambling behaviors. Data from this Native American sample are directly comparable to data from the general population of North Dakota as well as to data from gambling surveys completed elsewhere in the United States. This is the first time that information on Native American gambling involvement and problem gambling has been collected.YesNorth Dakota Department of Human Services, Division of Mental Healt

International planning directions for provision of mental health services

Internationally, there have been calls for more strategic mental health care delivery. For this to occur, individual countries need to define 'core' mental health services and set evidence-based, country-specific resource targets related to these. Via a web search, we identified 32 current mental health plans from five developed countries. We synthesised descriptive information from these documents, in order to compare profiles of 'core' services, resource targets relating to these services, and rationales for these resource targets. Most plans list 'core' clinical services, typically including a mix of inpatient and community services. Only four plans cite resource targets for these 'core' services, and these are difficult to compare due to different definitional and counting rules. All four provide rationales for the targets, though these vary in strength. The challenge remains for individual countries to develop plans that include appropriate resource targets, and to implement initiatives that move them towards these targets
