Dear Steve,

Here is a 9 minute youtube video that explains the entire Act.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3-Ilc5xK2_E

This 20 minute video is a little long but it deals with mental health under the Act. Kathleen Sebelius, (Secretary of Health and Human Services) and Pamela Hyde (Administrator of Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services) are interviewed. ---- this was uploaded two years ago but it seems that the information they are talking about is the same as now.

- a greater emphasis on preventative care
- a focus on the whole person (physical and mental)
and some other stuff
