ACCEPT

  • We accept that mental health and substance use challenges are a serious concern for families and their children – of any age.

  • We accept that legislative policies and actions effect the ability of our loved ones to get the support they need and deserve.

  • We accept that we need to EDUCATE ourselves and others on policies and their impact on families.

  • We accept it's our responsibility to speak up for families and to ADVOCATE and ACT for legislation and policies that support and protect them.
