Show Notes

The 88th session of the Texas Legislature kicks off in January. In a time of increasing polarization, mental health stands apart as an issue that lends itself to bipartisan cooperation. But will that be as true in 2023? What can we expect from the Legislature, and what does it mean to do mental health policy in 2023? Joining us to offer some potential answers to these questions is the Hogg Foundation Policy Team: Alison Mohr Boleware, director of policy; Shannon Hoffman, policy program officer; and Angela Ott, policy fellow.
