Just three years after the Lane Building was completed Congress authorized the Mental Health Study Act, a far-reaching examination of the nation's mental health programs. Directed by Jack R. Ewalt, formerly the Commissioner of Mental Health in Massachusetts, the study brought 36 mental health organizations into a Joint Commission on Mental Illness and Health. By the time its ten reports were published collectively in 1960 as Action for Mental Health, most of the country's public mental health systems, including Maryland's, were already instituting de-institutionalization and closing significant numbers of facilities. |
