“My whole career has revolved around making sure that people who have behavioral health needs and justice involvement get connected to the services they need and deserve. Serving as Co-Chair of the Commission aligns with this passion, and I am honored by Governor Meyer’s appointment to this role. These settlement funds represent an incredible opportunity to resource services and initiatives that will save lives.”
