Nearly 60% of respondents surveyed by the NAMI Ipsos poll had unfavorable views about the state of mental health care.

64% think Congress is doing too little to address mental health needs, and nearly three-quarters oppose cuts to federal jobs and funding for programs on mental health, substance use, and suicide prevention.

Hannah Weselowski is Chief Advocacy Officer at NAMI.
