MHSS Cap Change
 

Please reconsider making this change to 3 hours- 2 unit sessions for clients.  Mental Health treatment is such an important health concern and in my opinion if more people could receive the help they need, there will be so much less hate in the world, and so much more love.  Love is certainly what we need right now, individually and as a nation.  Positive changes certainly cannot occur with those mental health clients who so desperately need the help from the wonderful people who work in this field.  It is desperately neededDesperately.  I beg you to PLEASE reconsider this change so that professionals can help clients that so desperately need the help.  Everyone deserves the mental, as well as medical help that is so needed and derserved.  By cutting the units, you are cutting the help that many, many clients are in desperate need of.  Please, reconsider.  Thank you for your time.

A very concerned citizen, Tina Bousman
