For the past 50 years, federal legislation has been a key force in shaping the delivery of public mental health services. This article describes and summarizes recent relevant federal legislative initiatives and analyzes their potential in providing support, either explicit or implicit, for community-based mental health care for adults in the United States. These legislative mandates and options can be a source of optimism and ammunition for advocates and change agents as they continue to work vigorously to improve the mental health services system.
