Summary

You Can Take Care of People For A Day. Or, You Can Give Them The Power To take care of themselves for a lifetime. Unfortunately, people with mental health disorders are often excluded from the decision making processes that control their lives. Mental health institutions may encourage patient participation in principle, but organizational constraints overrule good intentions.
