Please join us on Capitol Hill as we gather together and show our elected officials that behavioral health consumers and their families are educated, united and WE VOTE! Unless appropriate action is taken by Governor Haslam and the members of the Tennessee General Assembly, today’s fragile community behavioral health infrastructure will edge closer to collapse. Thousands of Tennesseans will bear the burden of diminished behavioral health programs and services.
