Citizen Network

This document summarizes a presentation on mental health reform that discusses several key points: 1. Self-directed support for those with mental illness allows individuals greater choice and control over budgets and improves outcomes, but has been slow to be adopted. 2.

Peer support from those with lived experience of mental illness, not just peer support workers, can have a major positive impact. 4. Social factors like income inequality, debt, stigma, and lack of social support are strongly correlated with mental illness prevalence and should be addressed in reforms.
