Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 1

The best way for the nurse or anyone to know about a community is to live in the community. The other options are also viable ways to learn about a community, but are not as reliable as actually living in the community.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 3

In the United States, the National Mental Health Consumers' Self-Help Clearinghouse provides information on current support groups and guidelines about how to start a self-help group. The ANA and NLN do not provide this information. The remaining option is not a valid group.
