The Foundation for Excellence in Mental Health Care suggests a total redesign from the federal level down to the local level, including a redistribution of the power structure in policies, practices, and programs. We suggest an emphasis on 3 overarching themes:

1. Supports and treatments are most effective when they are designed and implemented in partnership with the people we are trying to help.

2. We need to recognize the important role social determinants play in the development and persistence of psychological distress.

3. Cultural and ethnic diversity should be honored and embraced.
