The
MHA/NC's commitment to advocacy is the cornerstone and foundation of
our mission. By providing a voice for those who experience mental
illness and their families, we meet our mission of promoting mental
health and supporting hope. The MHA/NC advocates for greater
access to
appropriate and affordable care, parity between mental illness and
physical illness in health insurance coverage, increased funding for
research and services, and the elimination of the stigma that creates
discrimination against people with mental illness. MHA/NC
furthers
these advocacy priorities through participation in state level mental
health coalitions, legislative and community advocacy, and by providing
information on mental health policy issues to governmental officials
and agencies.
