Mental health must receive funding in the next stimulus package — it can be the difference between life and death.

Mental health must receive funding in the next stimulus package — it can be the difference between life and death.
In every city, town, and home, in text messages, voicemails, and journal entries across America, people are struggling without access to affordable, life-saving mental health care. Some way or another, we all experience hard times.
If each of us looks out for just one other person and stands up for change, we can demand a mental health care support system that’s there for everyone.

We can’t ignore the impact the pandemic is having on our children. Distance learning and isolation mean more young people are experiencing a toll on their mental health. Congress has the power to help solve this – but we need them to take action now.
➡️ Tell Congress to support mental health for students and pass the #STANDUPAct.

A recent survey indicated that 50% of young people have had thoughts of suicide within the past few months. This shouldn’t be the new normal. We can help students and young people get through this. Encourage Congress to move the #STANDUPAct forward to help prevent youth suicide.
