NEW
FREEDOM INITIATIVE The New Freedom Initiative State Coalitions to Promote Community-Based Care (Olmstead) This initiative supports implementation of the Supreme Court’s decision in Olmstead v. L.C. and the President’s New Freedom Initiative. Under contract to the federal Center for Mental Health Services (CMHS), AHP and its partners created a National Coalition and statewide coalitions to help States develop community integration plans for adults and children with mental illnesses and emotional disturbances. As a subcontractor to AFYA, Inc., AHP manages annual stipends to the States to support coalition-building and provides technical assistance and training related to community integration. AHP staff and consultants have produced several key technical assistance products, including reports and a video.
