Many of the root causes of suicide and violence are untreated mental health issues. We need a legitimate program or bill that offers lower overhead cost for therapy/psychiatry, expands insurance coverage to include mental health treatments, and treats mental health issues as seriously as physical health issues. The cost of treatment for mental health problems is insanely unaffordable for most people, and I believe that making treatment easier to access will also aid in lowering the amount of suicides and violent attacks.
Come join the discussion my friend. Help me craft the vision and language.
