Medicaid and Medicare are lifelines for millions, but they need to be strengthened, not cut. We fight for expanding coverage, lowering the eligibility age and increasing provider reimbursement rates to ensure access to quality care.

 Behind every sick or elderly person is often an unpaid or underpaid caregiver. We advocate for policies that provide financial support, training, and respite services for family caregivers who play a critical role in our healthcare system 

HealthCare for All

Why Not Me?

Ending the silence, not the struggle

Ending the silence, not the struggle

believes mental health is just as vital as physical health. Yet, for too many, therapy, counseling, and psychiatric care are out of reach. Barriers like cost, lack of providers, and stigma prevent communities from accessing the care they deserve. True healthcare justice means investing in mental health resources that treat the whole person, not just the symptoms.

Ending the silence, not the struggle

Ending the silence, not the struggle

Ending the silence, not the struggle

Why Not Me? envisions a healthcare system where mental health services are seen as essential, not optional. Insurance should cover therapy and psychiatric care the same way it covers surgery or medication. But too often, families are faced with harsh choices. 

  • Skip therapy to pay rent.
  • Delay treatment and risk crisis. 
  • Rely on emergency rooms as a last resort. 

This is the reality for millions The system as it stands often treats mental health as secondary, leaving communities vulnerable to cycles of crisis and recovery. 

The result? People forced to battle their struggles alone, without the consistent care they need to thrive. That's not healthcare, It's neglect. 

The Hard Truths We Can't ignore

Ending the silence, not the struggle

A New vision for Mental health access

  • 1 in 5 adults experience mental illness each year, yet over half go untreated.
  • Mental health crises accounts for 23% of police shootings. 
  • Rural communities face provider shortages, with some areas lacking even one mental health professional.


We see the costs of ignoring mental health. But we also know the power of investing int it, together.

  • Communities build more crisis centers and invest in prevention programs.
  • Employers prioritize mental health days and employee well-being.


Mental health care isn't a luxury. It's a foundation for opportunity, stability, and dignity.
