“The need to strengthen mental health services is a nonpartisan issue that affects all Kansans, rural and urban alike — and addressing the need pays dividends for everyone. A lack of psychiatric beds has been one of the largest barriers to providing mental health care in our state. When completed, this state-of-the-art hospital will take significant pressure off our health care systems.”
