With the school year and election season well underway, we wanted to share a new resource developed by NAMI, Inseparable, and MHLC that introduces new ideas around legislation for Mental Health Education for our children.
Mental Health Education Policy: Model Legislation and Roadmap for State Leaders provides language, information, and model legislation for those in authority at the state level to advocate and implement Mental Health Literacy throughout the students, staff, and families of our schools.
This roadmap emphasizes early intervention and stigma reduction for mental health, which we all know is key to our overall wellness. Taking a proactive stance on the mental health of our youth supports a stronger society as a whole, and we encourage you to have conversations with school and government leaders to prioritize these issues on the state level.
