Subject Files, 1985-2008, Undated
- Scope and content:
- The subject files house documents of long-term value that do not belong to the Conference’s other record series. There are correspondence and memo files of specific members of the group, such as Peter Freed (counsel) and Gerry Landsberg (New York University), background on shared staff issues, and information on partnerships with the New York State divisions of alcohol abuse and chemical dependency as well as state housing committees. Researchers will also find documents pertaining to consolidation of services and positions over the years, particularly in the 1990s. Additionally, there are manuals, booklets, and conference materials about disaster preparedness in the mental health profession. Most of the collection’s photographs are also located in this series, with the exception of the Commission on the 21st Century images which are in Series #5.
