"A Day

Final
Report"
The
report
attempts
to
convey
new
understandings
that can
potentially
spur
improvements
in the
present-day
behavioral
health
services
system
in
Connecticut
and can
also
potentially
promote
positive
change
in the
lives of
state
residents.
In 1975, Connecticut decentralized its delivery of mentalhealth services. There are five mental
health regions in Connecticut. Each region is made up of catchment
areas.
Each catchment area has a Catchment Area Council (CAC), and each region has a Regional Mental
Health Board. These advisory councils and boards were established to
ensure that citizens from every town in Connecticut will be actively
involved in determining and monitoring the kind of mental health
services that will be provided in each catchment area by the
Connecticut Department of Mental Health and Addiction Services.
