Joint Committee On Health

Dual Diagnosis and Mental Health: Discussion

Mr. Mick Williams:

If they are placed somewhere with the resources and are exposed to those triggers but with the resources, the result will be a completely different person. That is what we do in essence. We expose them to people. People do a lot of damage to people. We expose them to society, emotional and environmental triggers. We cannot take them out of the community and put them in a utopian community somewhere else where everybody is hugging and kissing each other. It has not happened. They are back out in the real world with the resources and that is what we do.
