Description

Explore a deep analysis of social exclusion and discrimination faced by people diagnosed with mental illness. This book by Red Globe Press offers theoretical models and practical strategies to address the challenges of reintegration into society. By looking at research from the US, the UK, and other international contexts, the text examines how different remedies function in the real world. Readers will learn about the effectiveness of disability discrimination law and the impact of efforts to change media and cultural images. The book also looks at grassroots inclusion programmes and the difficulties presented by the 'nimby' factor. Central to the discussion is the role of the growing user/survivor and disability movements in driving radical change. This work is an essential resource for those studying the intersection of mental health, law, and social sociology.
