Abstract
1. Clients are interested in health education regardless of age, sex, or primary Axis I diagnosis. 2. Contrasts between staff and client ratings suggest that results support the practice of assessing clients' own perceptions of their needs in treatment planning and developing educational programs. 3. Items ranked as having most interest to clients included: psychiatric medication and side effects; getting what you need from the mental health system; and ways to solve problems.
