MAAPPN plays an active role in supporting legislation from other MA mental health groups.   As a member of the Mental Health Coalition, MAAPPN has the opportunity to hear of the legislative priorities from the professional groups (the guilds), advocacy and other mental health policy groups.  Susan Fendell, Senior Attorney for Mental Health Legal Advisors Committee announced MHLAC’s legislative priorities for 2015-16 and has asked MAPPN’s support.  MAAPPN will be lending support and endorsement to the following initiatives:

  • Disability insurance parity

  • Documentation of rationale behind connecting disability to a parental rights decision (public and private cases)

TED Talk: Mental Health for All by Involving All

News

[ted id=1557]

Psych APRN‘s (CNS and Psych NP’s)  play larger roles in global mental health more often then you think.  Psychiatric CNS’s and Psychiatric Nurse Practitioners teach in diverse universities, take  global service trips to war torn countries and guest lecture at schools of nursing in remote areas.  But how do we take our skills to reach the mentally ill in those places –  including the mentally ill within our own state – when when we can’t always be there?   Vikram Patel describes a way to improve mental health at the local levels by training others to the “SUNDAR” model, an empowering, “dare to care” way to involve those affected by mental illness and their caregivers.   As part of that, The Movement for Global Mental Health established as a platform where mental health providers and those with mental illness can stand together.
