💚 Why does stigma persist in forensic mental health care?

Meet Brian, a social worker in our forensic program. As part of his role, he helps our patients with their discharge planning. Support for transitioning back into the community is important and urgently needed.

💬 “Many patients are ready to leave the hospital but can’t, not because of their mental health status, but because they have nowhere to go."
