The adjunct consumer group

Abstract

Little by little, the community is becoming aware of the Weber Mental Health Center and PAAG. A recent study shows that the community approach leads to high visibility; PAAG activities were known by 37% of 1,000 people recently interviewed. This compares to 5%, 7%, and 15% having knowledge of other more traditional medical centers in Utah. It is felt that this approach is an important part in putting the community mental health center in proper perspective in the community. It is felt that the adjunct consumer group provides almost infinite flexibility to meet human needs. As a result, the Northern Utah Unit of the State Hospital will remain closed, largely because PAAG is serving the community.
