ANON POST: do mental health institutions still exist?

Were they all closed down in the 1980s? If not, where do any exist? And is there/were there institutions that housed male and female patients together (at least in common areas) or were they always same sex?
I wanted to set a story in an institution, but if there are no modern day ones, then whenever they were in use.
Googled mental health institutions, current mental health institutions, history of
I can't seem to find any sites that point to current institutions or about m/f populations, most results deal with the past of such institutions and the abandoned sites, etc.

[Note for you, anon: Googling "mental health institutions" does give you an answer to your first questions immediately, but I'm letting this through since you might want more detail.]
