The Health Security Act – Improving Mental Health and Drug Treatment in NM
The bill will be introduced in the 2021 State Legislative Session.

Drug abuse tops the NM Department of Health’s list of diseases that cause death or disability in our state. Depression is #6.

Please join Dana Millen with Health Security for New Mexicans Campaign and learn how this legislation will help to relieve the suffering and disability caused by untreated mental health and substance abuse problems in our state. The bill promises:

• More behavioral health providers in New Mexico
• Access to mental health and substance abuse care in rural communities
• Less expensive medications for psychiatric conditions
• More robust coverage for substance abuse and mental health
