As many of you know, we typically hold a Day on the Hill where we get to talk to our elected officials and advocate for mental health each March. Due to the coronavirus, we were unable to do that this year, so we are instead holding a free online event. We have reached out to some of our elected officials and candidates to ask them how they are or will (if elected) advocate for mental health. Currently, we have Alisha Shelton and Senator Kate Boltz. We have also reached out to Congressman Jeff Fortenberry and Senator Ben Sasse and are waiting to hear back from them. If there are others that you'd like us to reach out, please email us at necounseling@gmail.com and let us know and we will reach out and see if they will agree!
Senator Kate Boltz: September 3rd, 6pm
Candidate Alisha Shelton: September 9, 6pm
Follow our Facebook page to check out these conversations and if you have questions you'd like us to ask, email us at necounseling@gmail.com or ask in the comment section of our Facebook Live Event!
