Join panelists Tracey Skale, MD, Tom Simpatico, MD, and Pete Earley , for a screening of a one-hour television program produced by The Fred Friendly Seminars for PBS: "MINDS ON THE EDGE: Facing Mental Illness" with a live interactive discussion to follow. The program connects dots between personal dilemmas facing individuals and families who are living with mental illness, medical practices that can be obstacles to treatment, and public policies that all too often fall short in providing support that could make a positive difference. Case studies will be examined across various barriers to treatment that occur both within and outside the provider domain. DVD Copies of MINDS ON THE EDGE will distributed to attendees at the session. Space is limited. More information on the program may be found at www.mindsonthedge.org. At the end of this presentation, participants will be able to: - Discuss how the system of care for mental health, substance abuse and traumatic brain injury is currently fragmented, resulting in large numbers of afflicted persons becoming incarcerated in jails and prisons;
- Discuss ways in which the current treatment technology for serious mental illness can more effectively be used to reach more people and prevent avoidable incarcerations and homelessness; and
- Describe instances of barriers to treatment incurred by national, state, and municipal level legislation and the ethical dilemmas circulating these issues.
