The closure of asylums in the United States began in the mid-20th century, particularly during the 1960s and 1970s, as part of a broader movement toward deinstitutionalization. This movement aimed to shift mental health care from large, isolated institutions to community-based services. By the late 1980s, most state psychiatric hospitals had significantly reduced their populations or closed entirely, largely due to changes in mental health policies and funding.
