<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br> History of the Camarillo State Hospital, Camarillo, California, opened in 1936, and closed in 1997; facilities became part of California State University, Channel Islands. <p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br> Camarillo State Hospital, affectionately known as "Cam," officially opened its doors in 1936, during a time when the California State Commission in Lunacy oversaw the treatment and care of those deemed mentally ill. A pioneering research institution in autism and schizophrenia, Cam achieved notoriety as one of two state institutions that accommodated children and as the first state hospital to receive certification for treatment of the developmentally disabled. Although it was an independent body, retaining its own dairy, farm, residences, and even a bowling alley, Cam also developed creative relationships with volunteers, educators, and businesspeople for the betterment of its patients. "Enhancing Innovation Through Independence" became Cam's final ambition and, in the end, its ultimate achievement.
