A Blueprint for Hope
Stories of mental health excellence, inspired by hope
For those deep in the throes of mental illness—and for their loved ones—hope can seem elusive. That’s because health care systems weren't designed to meet the unique needs of mental health patients.
Howver, here at Huntsman Mental Health Institute, we’re building a whole new model for mental health care. One that, until recently, had no blueprint.
By integrating patient care, including crisis services, education, and groundbreaking research, we’re seeing big ideas lead to bold actions and positive outcomes. And with support from the University of Utah and many in our community, our model is gaining momentum and becoming something even bigger: A Blueprint for Hope.
