Over the past 10 years, Utah has passed over 40 bills and appropriated more than $85 million in funding to support mental health鈥攎ore than any other state. In September of 2021, an additional $90 million was approved for the Utah Translational Research Building. Our Utah state legislature is an important collaborator and strong supporter of mental health legislation, with over 93 percent approval for mental health bills. Due to the lack of reimbursement for mental health care, our crisis services wouldn鈥檛 be possible without legislation.
鈥淭he Huntsman Mental 人妻中出视频 Institute has been a critical partner in the legislature鈥檚 decade-long effort to reduce suicide and improve both crisis services and mental health access for the citizens of Utah.鈥

In the coming year, we鈥檒l continue to partner with our legislators to ensure that they prioritize mental health. Together, we can help more people get the care they need to lead healthier, dignified, more enjoyable lives.
