Chester Mental Health Center

The Chester Mental Health Center is one of two State of Illinois' maximum security forensic mental health facilities for those committed via a court order or deemed an escape risk. The facility is operated by the State of Illinois in Chester, Illinois and is a part of the Illinois Department of Human Services, formerly the Illinois Department of Mental Health and Developmental Disabilities. It is adjacent to the Menard Correctional Center. The other secure mental health center is Elgin Mental Health Center, which houses men as well as women. Chester Mental Health Center is a men's facility.
==History==
The Board of Charities recommended a separate institution for the criminally insane as early as 1878. In 1879, the legislature authorized such a facility, but the appropriation was not used for this. In 1883, the governor again tried to fund a new institution, but there was disagreement over the site with both Springfield and Joliet as possibilities. In 1889, the legislature established the Asylum for Insane Criminals, and it received its first patients on November 2, 1891. W.T. Patterson transferred from the staff of Elgin State Hospital to become its first Superintendent. Control of the institution was placed with the Commissioners of the Southern Penitentiary at Menard. The original building on the penitentiary grounds was poorly constructed and was eventually torn down. A replacement was built on a separate campus near Chester, Illinois. When the Board of State Commissioners of Public Charities was abolished in 1909, the institute was reorganized and renamed Chester State Hospital effective January 1, 1910. In 1917, the Department of Public Welfare assumed responsibility for Chester State Hospital and retained control until the creation of the Department of Mental Health in 1961 (L. 1961, p. 2666). In 1975, the hospital changed its name to the Chester Mental Health Center.
The Center was the second secure psychiatric facility in the United States to be accredited by the then Joint Commission of Hospitals, now the Joint Commission of Healthcare Operations (JACHO). It was the first such facility to be accredited in Illinois. This was accomplished while Terry B. Brelje, Ph.D. was the superintendent.
