There is little national information on the policies & procedures used by States to regulate residential treatment facilities for adults with mental illness. As a result, policymakers & program administrators face major difficulties in determining both the effectiveness of current policies & the potential need for new policies that are responsive to emerging trends in mental health care. Based on a survey of State officials, this report provides the most accurate national data available concerning methods that States use to license, regulate, & monitor residential facilities for adults with mental illness. The information in this report can help Federal & State policymakers improve procedures for monitoring quality of care provided in these facilities. Illustrations.
