Advocating for Mental Health Policy
How everyday voices help shape mental health decisions at the local, state and national level.
A webinar hosted by Mindspring, one of our partners.
Mental health policies are shaped at multiple levels of government – from state legislatures and governors to Congress and the President. These decisions influence funding, access to care, insurance coverage, crisis response systems, and nationwide workforce capacity. This presentation equips participants with practical tools to advocate for mental health across state and federal systems, including how to communicate effectively with legislators, governors’ offices, members of Congress, and executive agencies. The course emphasizes respectful, nonpartisan engagement grounded in lived experience, data, and shared values. Participants will leave with clear, realistic strategies for influencing policy without needing political expertise.
