One of our editors and contributors, Alex, has a new article over on Nursing Clio. It’s about the long history of deinstitutionalization in mental healthcare, and how an enterprising social worker in Los Angeles in the 1940s tried to chart a better path for people suffering from mental illness. It’s a story about the history of public health, but also about the history of Jews in America and the Left in the mid-twentieth century. We hope you will check it out.
