New Mental Health Legislation
Before Congress adjourned for summer recess, two important Mental Health bills were introduced, one in the Senate and one in the House. These two bills have been claimed to “comprehensively overhaul and strengthen America’s mental health care system.”
The Mental Health Reform Act of 2015 (S 1945)
&
The Helping Families in Mental Health Crisis Act (HR 2646)
The National Alliance on Mental Illness offers more education about the bills and ways to get involved. You can read more about theses bills HERE and consider reaching out to your Senators/Representative if you wish to express your opinions.
