A survey of staff members and training-program directors suggests that inter-disciplinary functioning is the rule rather than the exception in community mental health centers, although there are significant differences by profession in time spent in interdisciplinary work and in attitudes toward it. Striking parallels are seen within each profession between attitudes of staff and of directors of training programs. Barriers to interdisciplinary functioning and training are identified and discussed
