a developing country like India. It covers all the aspects of care
including prevention, treatment, rehabilitation and follow up.
The USP of this model :-
 Empowerment of mentally ill people by providing vocational
training and building their confidence to get back to their normal
life.
 Private institutions alone cannot provide treatment thus utilizing
existing government infrastructure in a right manner to solve this
problem.
