The Case for Shifting Mental Health Care to Communities

Original: The Case for Shifting Mental Health Care From Institutions to Communities

Time Magazine has published an argument for moving mental health care away from large institutional settings and toward community-based services. The piece contends that care delivered close to home — through local clinics, peer support and integrated primary care — can better serve patients than remote institutions. It joins an ongoing global debate among health policymakers over deinstitutionalization, funding priorities and how best to support people living with mental illness.

Why now: Debates over mental health care funding and treatment models are active among policymakers and the public.
