This endorsement marks a significant step forward in addressing the critical workforce challenges facing the mental health sector in Indiana. The ICCMHC’s commitment, announced on July 15, 2024, aligns perfectly with our mission to enhance the quality and accessibility of mental health services across the state.
Zoe Frantz, President & CEO of Indiana Council, emphasized the importance of this commitment, stating the following:

We are confident that this collaboration will lead to meaningful improvements in the availability and quality of mental health services throughout Indiana.
Indiana’s mental health care is in crisis, with both real-life impacts on the everyday lives of millions of Hoosiers and for the long-term economic outlook of our state. Our Playbook tackles that crisis head-on, offering concrete policy solutions to increase the number of mental health care workers in Indiana.

Together, we’re building a stronger, more resilient mental health workforce for Indiana.
