Mental health agency priorities questioned
A Stanley Foundation and National Alliance report accuses the National Institute of Mental Health of misdirected spending. It cites more on AIDS than schizophrenia, $200 000 on adolescent romance, and $505 000 on peer rejection while only 12 percent goes to clinical research for severe mental illness. The NIMH defends funding as Congress directed or essential basic research and notes $100 million over five years for four new clinical trials.
