Violence and Mental Health
Recent events have spurred discussions of the role of mental illness in acts of violence. Debates have ensued regarding the role of mental health professionals, mandated treatment, and university administrations in prevention efforts.
Repeatedly, studies show that people with mental illness are no more violent than people in general.
