state agency

New York State Office of Mental Health

A state mental-health agency operating psychiatric centers and licensing mental-health services, including statutory pathways for involuntary admissions and inpatient rights frameworks. New York State Office of Mental Health scores low because of coercive violence, documented human harm, and person-dependent governance, with weak accountability reinforcing the negative evaluation.

Why this matters: State psychiatric systems combine public-service obligations with the coercive authority to confine, transport, retain, and treat people in crisis.

NYS OMH oversees a large mental-health system and operates psychiatric centers, creating public-service capacity and state administrative control rather than patient-run governance. That places New York State Office of Mental Health in the middle of Ownership: there is some mission, member, producer, or public-interest constraint, but decisive control is not fully democratic.

Penalties

Penalty	Applied	Why this penalty
