The lead federal agencies working to reduce the burden of mental disorders are the National Institute for Mental Health (NIMH) and the Center for Mental Health Services (CMHS). Both organizations have extensive Web sites that provide substantial information including statistics on mental disorders, reports and fact sheets on specific mental disorders in specific populations, and consensus conference reports on the diagnosis and treatment of mental disorders. See also, the Surgeon General’s Report on Mental Health for additional information on mental health.
