The Mental Illness Specific Grant (MISG) was introduced under the NHS and Community Care Act 1990, providing from April 1991 revenue grant for the development of social care services for individual with mental health problems. This study was undertaken to review those projects funded under the MISG during the first three years of the grant. A two stage evaluation was conducted. The first stage, conducted in the spring of 1995, involved an initial mapping exercise of the projects which had been funded. The second stage involved a more detailed study of 40 MISG projects. The fieldwork for this main stage was conducted between autumn 1995 and summer 1996.
