Sound remains a steadfast source of support for King County’s most vulnerable. Our team navigates challenges with a guiding mantra: do the next right thing. From expanding access to care through programs like Certified Community Behavioral Health Clinics (CCBHCs) and Mobile Rapid Response Crisis Teams (MRRCT) to advocating for Medicaid funding, we are committed to ensuring hope, healing, and recovery for our community. Despite policy uncertainties, we continue to stand strong in our mission. Thank you for your unwavering support.
As we observe Mental Health Awareness Month, now is the time to reflect on the challenges our communities face and the impact we can make together. This May, stories like Anthony’s and Ellen’s remind us of the power of care, resilience, and recovery. Join us during GiveBIG 2024 to support Sound’s mission and transform lives.
While April brings hope of spring and growth and the levity of April Fool's Day — we need to also acknowledge the importance of Alcohol Awareness Month and National Minority Health Month (NMHM). Alcohol Awareness Month aims to raise awareness, reduce stigma, and promote community action, while NMHM highlights the importance of reducing health disparities and improving the health of racial and ethnic minorities and American Indian/Alaskan Natives.
As we advocate for change, now is the time to reflect on the challenges we face and the solutions ahead. Through the CCBHC model and PPS financing, we aim to transform behavioral health care. Our clinics are leading this effort in Washington with SAMHSA grants.
As we embark on a new year, now is the time to reflect on the journey behind us and our aspirations for the year ahead. In 2023, our organization navigated change, met new challenges, and strengthened our operational efficiency and care delivery.
