"Suitcases"
We will be discussing, in more depth, the ways that viewing the history of the Public Mental Health System in New York State has informed or can inform our current practice and actions in working with people with mental illness and disability. For those of you who were unable to attend Grand Rounds, Darby Penney, formerly Director of Recipient Affairs at the Office of Mental Health in NYS and co-author of "The Lives They Left Behind: Suitcases from a State Hospital Attic” challenged common stereotypes of mental patients by depicting the lives of some of these people via their belongings and medical records.
