We're thrilled to share the progress of the STOP Suicide Act - legislation dedicated to transforming how we respond to mental health challenges in our community. Spearheaded by Rep. Jamie Raskin, this bill represents an important shift towards early intervention and accessible, evidence-based care. We're proud to endorse this life-saving legislation. Our CEO, Ann Mazur, voices EveryMind's support: "At EveryMind, we deeply understand the life-saving impact of timely, community-based support. The STOP Suicide Act is a crucial move towards mending a critical void within our current mental health system, ensuring that individuals have access to the proven, evidence-based care they require at critical times. We are in full support of this bill as it's poised to significantly alter the landscape in preventing suicide." Join us in advocating for a future where mental health care is within reach for all. Let's celebrate this step forward together.

We celebrate the Biden-Harris administration's recent measures to reinforce parity laws and enhance mental health and substance abuse care availability. This initiative is set to reshape access for the nation's workforce.
I applaud the Biden-Harris administration for strengthening parity laws and expanding access to mental health and substance use care, particularly for the nation’s workforce. With nearly 70% of children and over half of adults lacking adequate access to care, these changes—closing loopholes and requiring health plans to provide equal access—are crucial. This move prioritizes the well-being of millions of government employees and workers nationwide. EveryMind. is a proud champion of these efforts toward ensuring equitable mental health services for all.
