A person can be committed to a mental health institution ". If the court finds by clear and convincing evidence that the respondent is dangerous to self or others or is gravely disabled, as a result of substance abuse or mental illness, it shall render a judgment for his commitment." So essentially if the person is a potential danger to themselves or others they can be involuntarily committed.
