Mental Health Reform: Still Saying the Same Thing After All These Years

David Reville

Canadian Public Policy, 2005, vol. 31, issue s1, 65-68

Abstract: On the basis of my experience as a consumer of mental health services and an advocate for improved services, I consider the following considerations uppermost. Don t lose sight of the issue of poverty because people with mental illness and addiction need to be able to focus on recovery rather than mere survival. All stakeholders (consumers, families, caregivers, and advocates) must be involved in the design, implementation, and evaluation of mental health policy because all stakeholders will have a different point of view, and all need to be heard. Finally, recovery comprises many different elements and there is no one-size-fits-all formula.
