Representative Raquel Moore-Green says she is focused on setting the foundation for assessing Oregon’s resources to address mental health issues in her role as the Vice-Chair of the House Committee on Behavioral Health and as a member of the House Health Committee this session.
She says that her chief concern in health policy this session is assessing what resources are available, then closing gaps in care.
“Setting the foundation for properly assessing the state’s resources to address the mental health issues that have persisted for many years and have only been exacerbated by COVID-19. This spans the gamut from workforce, workforce preparedness, to system capacity. Both in our public sector – our state hospital, community corrections – and private sector.”
