The case for shifting mental health care to communities

Original: The case for shifting mental health care from institutions to communities

The World Health Organization and Time Magazine are both making the argument that mental health care should move away from large institutions and toward community-based services. The push reflects a growing consensus that people recover better when treated close to home, with support networks, local clinics and primary care playing a central role instead of long-stay psychiatric facilities.

Why now: Major health and news organisations are highlighting community-based mental health care as an alternative to institutional treatment, drawing renewed attention to the debate.
