More For the Mind was published by the Canadian Mental Health Association in 1963. It reviewed the state of mental health services in Canada and called for transforming the delivery of mental health services
from a neglected asylum-based system to a community-focused system where people could access services in general hospitals and the community. The article reviews the history of mental health services in Canada, the legacy of More for the Mind and the prospects for the reforms outlined in Changing Directions, Changing Lives.
