There’s 22 new inpatient children’s mental health beds, each individual patient rooms with space for parents or guardians to stay overnight. Care will begin with adolescents, with the goal of hospitalizing kids by the end of the year — ultimately, kids as young as 6.

Sue Abderholden, NAMI Minnesota, says parents are typically allowed to spend the night with kids hospitalized for a health crisis — except when it’s a mental health crisis. This will be different. Parents can spend the night here.

Our bill tells big insurance companies they have to *actually* provide access to the care they promise. You can’t list providers that don’t accept patients anymore. You can’t keep lists of outdated phone numbers. If they don’t follow the rules, they can be fined.

Have you ever called a therapist’s office listed by your health plan only to find out they’re no longer covered by your plan, don’t accept new patients, or the number listed is plain wrong? These are ‘ghost networks’ and they make accessing mental health care extremely difficult.

Nearly every family that has a child with a Social Security number can claim the expanded Child Tax Credit (CTC)--up to $3,600 per child! The CTC helps families with the costs of raising children. It is easy to claim--but you must do so by November 15! getctc.org/en

In MN folks working the most in demand jobs are still often unable to afford housing. #BuildBackBetterAct provides large-scale investments to ensure renters with the lowest incomes have a place to call home. #HoUSed nlihc.org/housed @RepAngieCraig @RepDeanPhillips @Ilhan
