Ley de Salud Mental

The Ley de Salud Mental is a law designed to protect and promote mental health rights for all individuals. It aims to ensure access to quality mental health services, reduce stigma, and uphold the dignity and autonomy of people with mental health conditions. The law emphasizes community-based care, prevention, and early intervention, while mandating informed consent and respectful treatment. Its goal is to create an equitable system that supports mental well-being, integrates mental health into general health policies, and safeguards human rights for those affected by mental health issues.
