Visit Our Website
The Citizens Commission on Human Rights (CCHR) is a nonprofit mental health watchdog, responsible for helping to enact more than 180 laws protecting individuals from abusive or coercive practices. CCHR has long fought to restore basic inalienable human rights to the field of mental health, including, but not limited to, full informed consent regarding the medical legitimacy of psychiatric diagnosis, the risks of psychiatric treatments, the right to all available medical alternatives and the right to refuse any treatment considered harmful.
CCHR has worked for more than 50 years for full informed consent in the field of mental health, and the right to all the information regarding psychiatric diagnoses and treatment, not just the information coming from those with a vested interest in keeping the public in the dark.
CCHR's website presents the public with videos, blogs, news, medical experts and information designed to arm them with facts, and they can also directly contact CCHR for assistance to stop abuses that are ongoing.
As a nonprofit organization, it is through public donations that we are able to continue our educational campaigns.
