Title:
Letter from Judi Chamberlin to Herbert Pardes
Description:
Chamberlin writes to clarify the distinction between the ex-patients movement and the newly formed National Alliance for the Mentally Ill (NAMI). She states that the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) should consult with groups like NAMI to get the perspective of family members of mental patients, and with ex-patient run organizations, in order to see what patients really want or need.
