The Annual Advocacy Summit for Mental Health Policy Reform brings together policymakers, healthcare professionals, advocates, and community leaders to drive meaningful change in mental health legislation. This year’s summit will focus on expanding access to care, securing funding for mental health initiatives, and addressing systemic barriers to treatment.

As a policy advocate and speaker, I will be discussing “Mental Health Legislation & Public Policy: Creating Sustainable Change for Future Generations.” My talk will explore key policy advancements, the role of advocacy in shaping mental health laws, and strategies to ensure lasting reform that prioritizes accessibility, equity, and stigma reduction.

By working together, we can create real, lasting improvements in mental health policy that support individuals, families, and communities for years to come. I look forward to joining this critical conversation and collaborating on solutions that drive progress.
