Welcome to the Citizens Commission on Human Rights (CCHR), a non-profit, non-political, non-religious mental health industry watchdog whose mission is to eradicate abuses committed under the guise of mental health.   In this role, CCHR has helped to enact more than 150 laws protecting individuals from abusive or coercive mental health practices since it was formed over 48 years ago.   As a non-profit organization, CCHR is funded by your tax-deducible donations and memberships that fuel our broad public awareness campaigns and services to assist the general public.
