Advocacy can be especially powerful when policies threaten to create barriers to care or put vulnerable communities at greater risk.

NAMI Illinois Board Member Calynn Lawrence recently attended Mental Health America’s Regional Policy Council meeting, The Power of Pushback: Advocacy in Action, where participants explored how thoughtful, strategic advocacy can help reduce harm and influence better policy decisions.

Thank you, Calynn, for representing NAMI Illinois and bringing these important conversations back to our community.
