 I have listed all of the categories as they were in the publication, but I am not tied to them.  It has been 20 years since the creation of this publication so I'm sure that everything from the category names to the books included could be outdated.\\

 I have added two new sections/categories: [[http://lbphwiki.aadl.org/coping_skills#unemployment_job_hunting_added_2013|Unemployment/Job Hunting]] and [[http://lbphwiki.aadl.org/coping_skills#returning_vets_military_families_added_2013|Returning Vets/Military Families]].\\
