Statement from Tipper Gore, Mental Health Advocate, on ThriveNYC: A Mental Health Roadmap For All

November 23, 2015

"I'm heartened to hear about Mayor de Blasio and Ms. McCray's plans to help New York City residents with mental health challenges. I applaud their efforts and their understanding that providing access to good mental health care strengthens individuals, families and communities. Not only does access to care improve the lives of the people directly involved, but also saves taxpayer dollars by providing cost-effective medical treatment."
