Are Jails in the US Replacing Asylums?

Millions of Americans with severe mental illness are trapped in a cycle of hospitalization, discharge, homelessness, and imprisonment. This video discusses the harsh reality of how jails have replaced psychiatric asylums as the new psychiatric hospitals, with more mentally ill patients than hospitals. We track families struggling with loved ones finding it difficult to obtain proper care in a time of dwindling mental health services and growing incarceration rates. Specialists opine on the difficulties of deinstitutionalization and the contentious debate on involuntary treatment. Through innovative community initiatives and new money facilities, some are attempting to interrupt the cycle — but many continue to have limited choices and repeated crises.
