Abstract
Parent involvement in a day treatment program for psychotic children is described. Working with staff helps satisfy parental needs for nurturance and competency. For staff, who often identify with the child, frequent open discussion and supervision are required to facilitate working effectively with both parent and child. A clinical vignette serves to illustrate the process.Keywords
