TY - JOUR T1 - CRIPA, <em>Olmstead</em>, and the Transformation of the Oregon Psychiatric Security Review Board JF - Journal of the American Academy of Psychiatry and the Law Online JO - J Am Acad Psychiatry Law SP - 383 LP - 389 VL - 40 IS - 3 AU - Joseph D. Bloom Y1 - 2012/09/01 UR - http://jaapl.org/content/40/3/383.abstract N2 - This commentary explores the relationship among the 1999 U.S. Supreme Court Olmstead decision; the Department of Justice, Civil Rights Division, in its application of CRIPA (the Civil Rights of Institutionalized Patients Act); and the application of both CRIPA and Olmstead to the question of individuals hospitalized in state mental institutions following commitment from criminal courts. Using Oregon as an example, the commentary illustrates the interplay between state and federal governments as Olmstead and CRIPA are expanded into the realm of criminal court commitments to state facilities and into the arena of community mental health services for deinstitutionalized persons.
