Redesigning Mental Illness: May 2019

May 12, 2019

Redesigning Mental Illness was my main "work in process" website from 2012 to 2015, as I developed my approach to personal recovery (Defying Mental Illness) and community treatment systems (SHARP Stop Heroin and Rescue People).

I hope you find this material useful.

About Paul Komarek

Paul Komarek is an author and consultant with a comeback story. After bipolar disorder wiped out his legal career, Paul rebuilt his life around his strengths as a writer, teacher and policy expert. He works on tough social issues, including criminal justice reform, education of children with disabilities, violence prevention, addiction treatment, and health care for the poor. Paul’s book Defying Mental Illness, Finding Recovery with Community Resources and Family Support (ISBN 978-1494786441) is the first book for general audiences to focus on mental health recovery, not how to have your disease. He is working on two blog projects. Redesigning Mental Illness focuses on what ordinary people can do to fundamentally change how mental illness plays out in America. Grassroots Educator focuses on teachers in community settings, the ones who never issue report cards.
