Preface

The objectives of establishment of the institute included to deliver modern services to the mentally ill people in the community, to develop qualified and trained manpower, to help provide mental health services through primary health care system, to conduct researches in the field of mental health.The available mental health services in Bangladesh are inadequate in comparison to the need of the community. Since establishment of the institute the authority has been trying to achieve the goals. We need extended support from the government to achieve the defined goals of establishment of the institute. I am thankful to all the staffs of the institute and relevant sectors of the government for helping us in realizing our aspirations.This Health Bulletin containing data during the period 2014 will help us in finding out the deficits, weaknesses and future directions for further development of the existing services.
