Summary:Effective supervision is a key aspect of community-based mental health practice that may enrich staff development, and improve the quality of care for clients. This case study describes the organizational efforts of a not-for-profit, community-based mental health and addiction service provider to strengthen its approaches to clinical supervision.

The model incorporates existing best practices, and may strengthen research on supervision through the integration of practice-based insight.
