Brief Report

A Survey of Mental Health Leaders One Year After the President's New Freedom Commission Report

Silke A. von Esenwein, M.A., Thomas Bornemann, Ed.D., Lei Ellingson, M.P.P., Rebecca Palpant, M.S., Lynn Randolph, A.S. and Benjamin G. Druss, M.D., M.P.H.

As part of the 19th annual Rosalynn Carter Symposium on Mental Health Policy, held in 2003, an anonymous online survey of symposium participants was conducted to gain insight into participants' perceptions of the impact on their organizations of the President's New Freedom Commission and its recommendations. The participants were national mental health leaders representing a broad range of mental health agencies and organizations. The results of the survey suggest that the New Freedom Commission has had a substantial impact on the organizations represented at the symposium. Findings on successes and challenges in implementing the recommendations suggest areas for ongoing efforts to transform mental health care.
