    Abstract:
    Japan had a long history of long-term hospital care and is now trying to change it into community-based psychiatry. Implementing comprehensive approach that has already been proven effective through evidence based data in one particular community, one has to overcome several local barriers, if the same approach is to be implemented in different situations, such as differences in socio-cultural background and health care system. This is a report of the activities of Minato Net 21 pointing out the "local barriers" on implementing comprehensive approach in an urban district of Tokyo.
