7. The Bazelon Center strongly opposes the integration
of forced treatment approaches in intensive case management programs, such
as the version of Program for Assertive Community Treatment (PACT) promoted
by some groups. All services should be voluntary and responsive to individual
consumer choice and preferences.
8. The Bazelon Center strongly supports this emphasis
by the Health Care Financing Administration on the need to involve consumers
in services planning.
