Publications and Outreach by GAP

One unique project of GAP was the production of a film A Nice Kid Like You, prepared by the Committee on the College Student in 1970. This film addresses itself to the college scene and deals with drugs, sex, parents, and the problems of modern America as seen through the eyes of college students. The Mental Health Materials Center served primarily to facilitate the effective dissemination and use of mental health education print material and audiovisual aids. Alex Sareyan was its Executive Director and GAP employed the services of this organization to distribute its Reports to a wide audience. Other types of materials published by GAP were reports and symposia. Reports are published copies of those Circular Letters with which GAP reached a wider audience. Symposia refer to the presentations prepared by one or more committees from theme-oriented meetings. The symposia cut across sub-specialty boundaries and often were interdisciplinary in nature. Twelve of these symposia were judged of significant importance to the published.
