Abstract
The Western Region Outreach Service (WROS), a service of the Western Region Health Centre (WRHC), has developed an innovative program and model for service delivery for Vietnamese people with a mental illness, their carers and family members. This model is known as Dung Hop, a family- and community-based model that reflects Vietnamese values and culture. Dung Hop is an eclectic merging of the Psychiatric Disability and Rehabilitation Support Service (PDRSS) principles and the Vietnamese Collectivist Philosophical principles, suggesting a harmonious and balanced way to provide support for clients and their support systems. The written text of this model and some of its applications to the success of the Vietnamese Program can be found at www.wrhc.com.au
