During the COVID-19 pandemic, Lyon’s local mental health council is reaching out to people suffering from mental health issues [Interview]

Serving as forums for collaboration among mental health stakeholders, Lyon’s Local Mental Health Councils (CLSM) strive to provide concrete, coordinated solutions to the challenges faced by people with mental health disorders, such as access to housing and care, and addressing precarious living conditions. In mid-2020, following the first lockdown, “Adult Listening Centers” were established in the city’s disadvantaged neighborhoods. Clinical psychologists provide free consultations at community-based facilities open to individuals experiencing psychological distress who are not covered by hospital psychiatric services and do not have access to private psychologists.
