Critical incidents, as defined by the Connecticut Department of Mental Health & Addiction Services Commissioner's Policy Statement Chapter 6.26, are incidents that may have a serious impact on DMHAS clients, staff, funded agencies or the public.
DMHAS research has received millions of dollars in federal funds to research such areas as supported housing, homeless families, criminal justice diversion, co-occurring mental health and substance use disorders, consumer-operated services, mental health service quality indicators, substance use disorder treatment outcomes, and the prevention of substance misuse. DMHAS continues to conduct research to understand the processes underlying mental illness and substance use disorders, and to evaluate new techniques to respond to them.
