This chapter urges that all mental health training programs be encouraged to include at least one course on preventive interventions, and that we develop a core of educational programs that can provide a nucleus of highly trained specialists in prevention research and implementation. It is essential that some of these specialists be ethnic minorities, because such training has as much to gain from the incorporation of a multicultural perspective as other forms of professional development, and because preventive interventions represent a viable response to the overwhelming mental health needs of some segments of the minority population.
