Portland: crimes against humanity (literally). Oregon leaders should be ashamed of their neglect of the disabled.

We have invented AI, GLP-1 agonists, and self-driving cars. Surely we can house seniors and the disabled. Maricopa county has 6000 people determined Seriously Mentally Ill on a supported housing wait list.

Excellent congratulations!

Thank you Gov. Hobbs! Will you support severe psychiatric disabilities with the same level of commitment? These SIMPLE and INEXPENSIVE bills are waiting for final votes: SB1604, HB2492, HB2944, and HB2706. Please don’t forget the disabled SMI community.

Then imagine if, after years of suffering, you finally found effective treatment in a Facebook group instead of from a doctor. And what if you later learned that treatment was actually the “gold standard” for your condition but doctors were just too lazy or uneducated to use it.

Shame on Oregon. I hear from families all over the country, Oregon is the worst. Their leadership condones state sanctioned torture of the most vulnerable mentally ill. Other states don’t allow this. Decent humans don’t allow this.

A true public servant- I love this!

Critical legislation for secure residential facilities for Serious Mental Illness has passed in AZ. Thank you for this bipartisan effort.

Excellent short recap on the benefits of clozapine and its tragic underutilization. Thank you! Thousands in the US die every year due to delayed clozapine treatment!

Look for this 3 part podcast to air in two weeks. I share our journey in getting our son Seth, who lives with schizophrenia, care. My church is a significant part of this story & I can’t wait for you to meet them. #WorldSchizophreniaDay

On the most difficult day, I woke to the news that my only son was killed in Afghanistan. He was due home in just 2 weeks. I already had his birthday present, planned to go to a baseball game like old times, cook his favorite foods, joke and tease and make up for lost time, but

Like clozapine for schizophrenia. FDA approved in 1989, is 5 times more effective than the second best antipsychotic, yet woefully underutilized while thousands die each year.

“Harm reduction” staff had regular contact with a homeless teenager yet never sought a court-appointed guardian/conservator, and never sent crisis officers to bring him to a hospital or residential treatment center. Shame on Oregon.
