LUM Supports Mental Health Legislation
Do More for Mental Health & Suicide Prevention
May is Mental Health Awareness Month, and this is a great opportunity to call on Congress to do more for mental health and suicide prevention.
Join the Campaign for Hoosier Families by emailing your U.S. Senators to urge their support for two important federal bills that will help improve youth mental health and prevent suicide in schools: The Youth Mental Health & Suicide Prevention Act (S.3628) and The Mental Health Services for Students Act (S.1841).
The US Senators representing Indiana are Mike Braun & Todd C. Young; and House members representing Indiana are as follows (click on their names for contact information):
- District 1 – Frank Mrvan
- District 2 – Jackie Walorski
- District 3 – Jim Banks
- District 4 – Jim Baird (Tippecanoe County)
Reach out to Senators Braun & Young and your House representative by email, letter and/or through social media. Demand #MoreForMentalHealth and urge them to support and vote “YES” for The Youth Mental Health & Suicide Prevention Act (S.3628) and The Mental Health Services for Students Act (S.1841).
