We are pleased that Governor Mills has proposed an additional $19.7 Million for Behavioral Health Services. The Governor’s proposal represents a big step towards stabilizing critical behavioral health services for children and adults in Maine. These funds will help address a system in crisis. For too long, MaineHealth’s emergency departments have served as the provider of last resort for people experiencing mental health crisis.
You can help us address this crisis by contacting your legislators and asking them to support this proposal! Learn more about the proposal here: http://mh.care/yA2b50In5WQ
