The 4th Mission of the Department of Psychiatry is to contribute to measurable improvements in community mental health and well-being by fostering diverse community, consumer, and collegial partnerships. Such partnerships utilize collective strengths in education, service, and research to reduce mental illness risk factors, develop protective factors, enhance determinants of mental well-being, and improve access to care.
