The bipartisan and bicameral Community Mental Wellness and Resilience Act (H.R. 3073 & S. 1452) is a landmark bill that will fund community-led initiatives that use a public health approach to prevent and heal mental health problems caused by toxic stresses, emergencies, and disasters.
On September 21, 2023, experts and leading members of Congress from across the United States came together for a briefing on the importance of this bill.
With over 1,000 registrants and several hundred attendees, the briefing was co-hosted/sponsored by - in addition to CTIPP - the International Transformational Briefing Agenda Resilience Coalition (ITRC), the Congressional Social Work Caucus, National Association of State Mental Health Program Directors (NASMHPD), National Association of Counties, National Prevention Science Coalition to Improve Lives (NPSC), American Psychiatric Association, American Psychological Association, Mental Health America, National Association of Social Workers, American Public Health Association, National Rural Health Association and National Federation of Families, among others.
