Mental Health Awareness Month is also a time to reflect on the history of mental health care in California — and the policies that continue to shape our communities today.

The legacy of CA Assemblyman Frank Lanterman has to include the 1967 Lanterman-Petris-Short Act, legislation that transformed how California approached living with mental illness.

The law sought to end indefinite institutionalization and restore civil rights to psychiatric patients, a major shift in public policy and human rights.

Mental health history is not separate from local history. It is part of the story of public policy, healthcare, disability rights, and community responsibility.

This Mental Health Awareness Month, we encourage thoughtful conversations about how the past informs the present and how communities can advocate for compassionate, accessible mental health care for all.
