Hi team,
California is a mental healthcare desert. San Diego is no different.
Many claim California has one of the strongest and most robust healthcare systems in the country, but without mental healthcare a foundational service is missing. And federal funding cuts are threatening to make it even worse.
Monica is working to fill that gap and protect our healthcare. Will you join her? Click here to sign our petition urging the State Legislature and governor to protect mental health funding in the state budget TODAY → [[link removed]]
PROTECT MENTAL HEALTH FUNDING [[link removed]]
San Diego County is facing a crisis, plain and simple — and our mental health services are not meeting the needs of our most vulnerable communities.
That’s why we’re proud to see our Supervisor on the frontlines fighting for this issue. On the Board, Monica has fought for new mental healthcare facilities, more inpatient beds for existing facilities, and accessible, affordable services to prevent crises before they happen.
Because Medicaid funds a lot of these services, proposed cuts to federal funding will put hundreds of thousands of San Diegans at risk.
While we can’t predict what happens next at the federal level, it’s crucial now more than ever that we have partners at the state level committed to protecting our current resources.
Click here to sign our petition urging state leaders to prioritize funding for mental health services in their upcoming budget and join the fight for the mental healthcare we all deserve. [[link removed]]
Thank you for standing up for San Diego County.
— Team Monica
