Sending the message that mental health should matter often requires telling the story of the people who are impacted by mental illness.

We talk to the media and the legislature about the real people who are impacted by mental illness and how making mental health care a priority in Colorado can improve the quality of life for thousands.

Please send your story to us if you would like to help let our decision makers and information gatekeepers know that mental illnesses are real, common and treatable. Whether you have a mental illness or if you know and love someone who does, you are impacted; decisions made regarding access to treatment and quality of care make a difference in your life.

Your story may be referenced when we talk to Legislators or the media or we may also contact you directly so you may tell your story personally. The more we talk about the impact of mental illness, the more impact we will have on making change.
