Mental Health: deinstitutionalization

Submitted by Paul Grobstein on Sat, 09/13/2008 - 2:13pm.
Thanks for calling attention to this. "Deinstitutionalization" and the Community Mental Health Act of 1963 are a very important part of the "context" for contemporary discussion of mental health. And yes, it can and should raise anew questions in peoples' minds about the costs and benefits of some provision for periods of somewhat segregated treatment options. Maybe more from David Dan on this theme?
