Disability Rights North Carolina recently released a report titled “Involuntary Commitment in NC: Overused, Misused, and Harmful”. This report lays out observations and recommendations that are the result of years of monitoring a broken system. It includes tragic stories, alarming trends, and practices that resonated with my own experiences with involuntary hospitalization and commitment. To learn more about the report, and the work that DRNC is doing to try and change these systems for the better, I spoke with Corye Dunn.
