The Chad's Legacy Project has outlined three key areas of opportunity in the world of Mental Health.

​

1) STIGMA REDUCTION: Mental Health Education in schools is a primary focus to eliminate the stigma attached to Mental Illness and reduce the current delay between onset and diagnosis/treatment. We are also committed to advancing Mental Health First Aid into the mainstream, boosting community awareness and intervention/support skills.

 

2) ACCESS AND CARE COORDINATION: Those that suffer must be able to obtain appropriate help and treatment early without waiting in a long cue for critically needed care. We believe aiding the expansion of the the Peer workforce is a key component to that.

 

3) SILO REDUCTION IN INNOVATIONS: Enhanced therapies and new breakthroughs are often limited by organizational or geographical silos that stall or block innovations in Mental and Behavioral Health. We seek to eliminate those silos through the Washington State Mental Health Summit.
