The process of deinstitutionalization was set in motion by three "revolutions" or movements: the pharmacological revolution, which led to the development of effective medications for mental illness; the patients' rights movement, which advocated for the rights of people with mental illness to be treated with dignity and respect, and for their right to live in the community rather than in institutions; and the community mental health movement, which promoted the idea that people with mental illness could be effectively treated in community-based settings rather than in large institutions. These three movements together paved the way for the closure of many large psychiatric institutions and the development of community-based mental health services.
