Abstract

Questions about the role of assertive community treatment as time-limited treatment, as an adjunct to other services and treatment, or as a comprehensive and continuous service system for adults with severe mental illness require further research. The growing research base should provide valuable information on costs, outcomes, and indications for assertive community treatment that can be evaluated by policy-makers.
