Contact Your Legislators

Building a relationship with your legislators is crucial. Reach out to them via phone or email and consider requesting a meeting to discuss the importance of mental health advocacy and policy change.

Participate in Public Hearings

Another effective advocacy method is participating in public hearings at the legislative office building. These hearings provide a unique opportunity to make your voice heard by the Connecticut General Assembly. You can testify in person or virtually, or simply submit written testimony.

Be Informed

Staying informed about daily activities at the legislative office building is another crucial aspect of advocacy. Many committee meetings and public hearings are streamed on CT-N, allowing you to stay up to date on ongoing mental health policy changes.

Time is running out to support our Winter Wellness Campaign! Your donation helps us provide essential mental health resources and expand access to care for individuals in need.⁠ Let’s come together to ensure no one has to face winter’s challenges alone. 

While our Winter Wellness Campaign is coming to a close, our toolkit will be available on our website all winter long as we continue to embrace warmth, connection, and wellness.⁠

Across the country, nonprofits are being stretched to their limits. But the need? It hasn’t gone anywhere. Your donation today, may be the housing referral that helps someone get through another week. The in-home mental health support that keeps someone safe. The only meal they’ll eat all day. The difference between crisis or care. Every dollar changes lives. Every dollar is a lifeline.

Your donation will enable us to provide mental health services, including therapy, in-home support, and case management, to low-income individuals and individuals experiencing homelessness.
