Extractions: Each State has a protection and advocacy agency that receives funding from the Federal Center for Mental Health Services. Agencies are mandated to protect and advocate for the rights of people with mental illnesses and to investigate reports of abuse and neglect in facilities that care for or treat individuals with mental illnesses. These facilities, which may be public or private, include hospitals, nursing homes, community facilities, board and care homes, homeless shelters, jails, and prisons. Agencies provide advocacy services or conduct investigations to address issues that arise during transportation or admission to such facilities, during residency in them, or within 90 days after discharge from them.

The No Child Left Behind (NCLB) Act of 2001 has significantly increased pressure on states and local administrators to improve schools and increase student achievement, especially in low-performing schools. State policies governing administrator standards, licensing, and professional development are key components of coherent state policy systems designed to improve teaching and learning. Many states are developing systemic, standards-based policies to improve leadership, but most face major challenges in recruiting, training and retaining administrators who can meet higher standards and new expectations.
