Children's healthy mental development has never been the focus of long - term, committed public health policy in the way that early physical health and development have been. We discuss four types of societal response to illness - cure, care, control, and prevention - and trace the history of public health in terms of its special responsibility to control and prevent disease. We identify four periods in the history of public health : the Sanitarian era (up to 1850), the Bacterial era (1850 – 1950), the Behavioural era (1950 – present), and the Communitarian era (the next century). Looking at this history from the viewpoint of the developmental psychopathology of the first 2 decades of life, we trace progress in public health responses to children with mental illness, from a philosophy of control by isolation toward one of preventive intervention. We examine primary, or universal, prevention strategies that have been tried, and we suggest some that might be worth reconsidering.
