Abstract
People with borderline personality disorder (BPD) are typically excluded from assertive community treatment (ACT) teams, the intensive model that typically serves people with serious psychotic and mood disorders. Nevertheless, many people with BPD are on ACT teams for clinical comorbidity or other reasons. Suitability and ability of ACT to provide their care is understudied. Our scoping literature review shows a limited body of research, with strong but mixed opinions on this dilemma, but notable incorporation of training and skills (e.g., dialectical behavioral therapy) into ACT may improve care for this population whose presence on ACT teams is a clinical reality.
