Mental Health

 

It is time to deal with our society's mental health problem without stigma. People are going to need more help than they ever have, and we have to do our best to provide it for them. I believe that we need a holistic approach, one that doesn't idly hope that people will wander into clinics and be able to access care despite the difficulties they face in providing documentation, or the cultural hurdles they might face towards admitting they even have a problem. I think we need to take care of people where they are, and that includes taking them care. On City Council I will do just that, and I will fight for everyone to have access to the housing they deserve.
