Community Psychiatry

Community Psychiatry is a branch of psychiatry focused on providing mental health care within the community, rather than in hospitals or clinics. It emphasizes understanding the social and environmental factors that affect mental health and aims to promote well-being by integrating services into the community. This approach can include outreach programs, support groups, and collaboration with local organizations to address mental health needs. The goal is to make mental health care accessible, reduce stigma, and support individuals in their everyday environments, fostering recovery through community involvement and support networks.
