Abstract
- Recently Our medical systems have been changed to a great extent and mental health systems have evolved as well ; with increased mental disorders, suicide, family violence, and increasing an elderly population. Currently, the general population has become more aware of an importance of mental health, and increasing mental disorders in turn led to massive social burdens. This requires an emergence of new national mental health policy. By establishing the national mental health policy, we, Korean Neuropsychiatric Association, are able to build a reputation that we deserve as a professional group, and provide the mental health promotion of the general population and improve the quality of life of those that are mentally ill.
