## Description

Mental Illness Policy Org is an advocacy and information organization focused on serious mental illness and public policy. It provides research, policy analysis, and practical resources for policymakers, legislators, journalists, families, law enforcement, and others seeking to understand the needs of people with severe psychiatric conditions. The organization’s materials address issues such as untreated illness, hospitalization, homelessness, suicide, violence, and incarceration, while distinguishing serious mental illness from broader mental health concerns.

Its resources include fact sheets and proposals on federal, state, and local policy, along with coverage of legislation, treatment systems, and approaches such as assisted outpatient treatment and reform of involuntary commitment laws. The site also offers studies, reports, articles, videos, and commentary on topics including Kendra’s Law, Medicaid, psychiatric hospital capacity, privacy rules, and the relationship between treatment and public safety. Mental Illness Policy Org presents its work as an effort to examine scientific evidence and legal questions while balancing individual rights, access to care, public safety, and responsible spending.
