YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Abraham Clemente is one of hundreds of severely mentally ill New York City residents who was stuck in a troubled adult home until a 2014 federal court order gave him the option to live independently. But the shift to independence has not been easy. “I’m going to fail. I don’t want to fail,” he says of living alone.

FRONTLINE and ProPublica investigate where New York fails its mentally ill in a documentary coming to PBS in 2019.
