City Inside/Out: Mental Health Help

City Inside/Out: Mental Health Help

3/29/201929:17

Reforming the state's mental health system is a top priority for Washington state lawmakers this session. Washington ranks 28^th in the country for access to mental health professionals, and the troubled Western State Hospital recently lost federal certification and funding. There is strong bipartisan support for addressing the growing crisis; and many innovative proposals are on the table, but will lawmakers agree on how to pay for them?

Guests:

Eric Bruns, UW Professor of Psychiatry & Behavioral Sciences

Brad Forbes, Policy Director, NAMI Washington

Laura Van Tosh, Mental Health Advocate

Todd Crooks, Co-Founder, Chad's Legacy Project

Laurie Jinkins, State Rep. (D-27^th)

Keith Wagoner, State Sen. (R-39^th)
