Mental Health Day on the Hill on March 12
The start of the 2020 legislative session is on February 11. This is less than a month a way and NAMI Minnesota is working very hard to be ready. We are counting on NAMI members to step up and commit to supporting NAMI's advocacy efforts this year.
There's no one way to be a mental health advocate. Writing a letter to your legislator, attending a town hall forum and asking a question about mental health, or joining the legislative committee are all important steps that you can take right now to help build Minnesota's mental health system.
One thing we count on every NAMI supporter to do is to participate in the 2020 Mental Health day on the hill.
This is the most important advocacy event of the year for the mental health community. NAMI Minnesota partners with the Mental Health Legislative Network - including other advocacy organizations, mental health providers, and the mental health workforce - to make our presence felt at the capitol.
This year our Day on the Hill is scheduled for March 12th from 9:30 AM - 2:30 PM and we need NAMI members from across the state to come out in force! We will have buses chartered from Greater Minnesota leaving from Moorhead, Duluth, Winona, Rochester, and the Willmar area, with other NAMI affiliates taking the lead to help get their members to the capitol.
The Day on the Hill starts with a training at the capitol, where advocates can get all the tools they need to engage their legislators. After the training, everyone will go to the capitol for our rally at the rotunda. This is where we make our voice felt at the capitol with over 400 mental health advocates. At the rally, you can expect speeches from legislators, people with lived experience, mental health providers, and our Executive Director Sue Abderholden! After the rally, everyone goes to meet with their legislators and talk about what needs to get done in the 2020 session to build our mental health system.
March 12 might seem like a long way off, but it is definitely not too early to contact your legislator and schedule a meeting sometime between 12:30 and 2:30 PM. All you have to do is call or email your legislator, identify yourself as a NAMI member or supporter, and ask for a meeting during the mental health day on the hill on March 12. Legislators schedules fill up quickly, so the sooner you reach out the better!
Not sure who your legislator is? All you have to do is click the link below and you can learn who your Representative and Senator are. If you schedule an appointment please let us know. You can register for the event on EventBrite. We ask that everyone register, but it is especially important for the folks that will be taking an MHLN bus from greater Minnesota. Your EventBrite ticket is how you reserve a seat!
Thank you for doing your part to make sure that our 2020 Day on the Hill will be a success! If you have any questions or want to get more involved, please contact Sam Smith to learn more!
