Boston University: Recovery Model Through ‘Innovations Institute’

"The conventional psychiatric model of “mental illnesses” as incurable biological disorders requiring lifetime medical management is undergoing a paradigm shift - away from hopelessness, and toward recovery.
This new model is built on the foundation of peer support, and consumer-based advocacy, with a focus on system transformation.  It is no small change; its time has come."
Discover and Recover (Boston University), Aug. 19, 2008 READ ARTICLE
