Assertive Community Treatment  

Definición

  • The Assertive Community Treatment (ACT) model of assisting people with severe mental illness was developed in the late 1970s by Leonard Stein and Mary Ann Test and their colleagues at the Mendota Mental Health Institute in Madison, Wisconsin. ACT was originally designed to prevent relapse and to foster successful adaptation to community living following discharge from the hospital.
