Alliance Alert: This past Tuesday was National Voter Registration Day! This week is a critical time to ensure your voice is heard in shaping the future of our communities and country. By registering to vote, you are taking the first step in exercising your right to participate in the democratic process. Voting empowers you to influence decisions on issues that matter most—healthcare, education, justice, and more. Every vote counts and registering ensures that you can make yours heard in upcoming elections. Importantly, voting is good for your health, both mental and physical! Don’t miss this opportunity to stand up for your rights and help create a more inclusive and representative democracy.
The Alliance continues to work to ensure we get the word out and support people to register and go out to vote! Last month we held a voter registration event highlighting the importance of voting for our community. Watch the video recording of last month’s event to learn more: Raising Our Voices: Voting and Civic Engagement in the Mental Health Community 8.28.24 (youtube.com). Check out the resources page to support voter registration below (also attached as a pdf) to learn more.
We are excited to provide another way to learn more about civic engagement and policy advocacy through this year’s Alliance Annual Conference! We will have a presentation from Jordyn Rosenthal and Phyllis Vine titled From Stress to Strategy: Mental Health and Your Voting Power! We will also have several can’t-miss presentations on advocacy and policy change including a town hall from OMH Commissioner Ann Sullivan and her team as well as a panel featuring long time statewide advocates! See below for more information about the conference and resources to help you register and create a plan to go vote! Continue to monitor this enews to learn other opportunities for civic engagement the Alliance will be facilitating for the community!
