For those of you in Virginia, I just discovered a new advocacy organization: The Campaign for Children's Mental Health.

The Campaign for Children’s Mental Health is the first-ever coordinated effort to improve Virginia’s child mental health system. The campaign brings together advocates, parents, treatment professionals, organizations and all the others who desire to make mental health services more available and accessible to the children who need them.

I hope this organization can make a difference in our state. It's certainly a great start.

I saw something about this recently but for some reason, it didn't get me excited. I'll look it up. Thank you!

I think it's hard to get excited because it feels like such a lost cause these days, with so many budget cuts etc. But, I think it's worth keeping an eye on the initiative, at least. I joined their mailing list and Facebook page.
