Public Interest & Advocacy

Hamm Clinic works to remain informed of new and changing health and mental health policies, as well as an active and clear voice for persons with mental illness and disorders.

 

Our Public Interest and Advocacy Program goals are to:

• Remain and grow stronger as a voice in the community for persons with mental illness, primarily, persons with the spectrum of illnesses that are treated at Hamm Clinic;
• Improve public awareness of the broad scope of influence adult mental illness has on the community, specifically children, the workplace, and the quality of our lives;
• Advocate for quality mental health evaluation and treatment in professional, community and civic arenas.
