Administrative History
In 2000, the Bureau of Recipient Affairs started the C/S/X (Consumer/Survivor/Ex-patient) Oral History Project in order to ensure that the experiences and perceptions of people who received mental health services were adequately documented. The project's name reflected the variety of ways in which consumers described themselves and other recipients of mental health care: some preferred to be called "consumers," others defined themselves as "survivors," and others saw themselves as "ex-patients."
