“Hospital beds have never been the right answer for most people. Halfway houses, in their day, didn’t work because they were about housing and not about treatment. What works is a series of treatment-focused programs that provide housing, routine, treatment, but most of all, social support. People with serious mental illness feel rejected and hopeless. Hospitalization does not fix that. Community care that ensures rehabilitation takes people, time, and money. But it works. For people who go through our residential system, fewer than one percent are back in acute hospital care seven years later.” - [[Book - Healing - Our Path from mental illness to mental health.

Not single, separated treatment, but a whole-of-society approach - Looking at the [[Systemic Thinking]] - Ecological map of the person. - [[Recovery MOC]]
