President Kennedy Urges Broad Mental Health Plan
President Kennedy proposed a multi year program aiming to cut hospital the stay for mentally ill and retarded, add prenatal and child health care, and fund community mental health centers. Four new bills would cover construction and staff costs for centers, with up to 75 percent funding for 15 months and no price tag yet set. The plan targets more private insurance coverage for mental health and seeks to prevent new cases while aiding thousands already in institutions.
