Last night I attended my last Dayton City Council meeting as their state representative where I was surprised with a key to the city and this βkick assβ plaque. Itβs been the honor of a lifetime to be a very small part in this amazing townβs growth and transformation. #GreenDevilforlife! π

I have full faith that this model will be taken up in other states, will help Americans gain access to providers, and, I believe, will save lives.

I helped them to have the first discussion on mental healthcare coverage in the organization's 50-year history then, I introduced this as a model act.

Sadly, it became quickly obvious that I would not be able to get this through in Kentucky, but that didn't stop me.
Similar to a yearly physical, this would allow insured folks to begin a relationship with a provider so they know whom to call should life become overwhelming or an issue arise, it would help to normalize mental healthcare more broadly, would encourage MH providers to come to states with shortages.

NKY/Greater #Cincinnati peeps who are engaged in community, focused on building unity, and not afraid to throw a (figurative) punch for what is righteous and just.
