Abstract
The Texas Council on Offenders with Mental Impairments stands as a model for envisioning and implementing the resolutions to problems of service development and delivery to offenders with mental impairments. Acting upon an uncommon sensitivity to the range of problems experienced by persons incarcerated with mental impairments, consumer groups, elected officials, and agency administrators moved to create the Council. The Council's coalition membership cuts across disciplines and agencies to promote close, effective coordination and collaboration. Most importantly, the Council was conceived, organized, mobilized, and continues to operate with advocacy as its primary guiding principle.
