CHILDREN'S MENTAL HEALTH:

MAMH recently endorsed an important policy paper, "Children's Mental Health in the Commonwealth: The Time is Now" written by MSPCC and Children's Hospital Boston. The paper calls for major reform of the state's mental health care system for children. We are also collaborating with the Children's Health Access Coalition (CHAC) in driving a legislative campaign to advocate for the paper's recommendations. The Coalition, consisting of advocacy and community organizations, families, legal and mental health advocates, and health care providers seeks to eliminate fragmentation of the mental health care system and create a more coherent mental health policy. To read the paper or learn more about the campaign please visit: http://www.mspcc.org/index.cfm?fuseaction=page.viewPage&pageID=538&nodeID=1
