Understanding the Mentally Ill

Share via

The works of the Alliance of the Mentally Ill, the Mental Health Assn. and writers, such as E.F. Torrey, are valiant efforts to aid the mentally ill. But recently there has surfaced another organization which hopefully will get the attention and support for which it is appealing. This is a research organization--the National Alliance for Research on Schizophrenia and Depression (NARSAD 1-800-4-NARSAD).

Very little is spent on research of mental illness--a fraction of that spent on other diseases. Hopefully, this organization will spearhead a move for research so this disease may be found curable.
