The Union of Advocates for Mental Health Recovery is an Organation that advoces for better Mental Healt care and funding from a more aggresive approach in the mold of history of Organized Labor Unions in America. My Union experiance in the United steelworkers and the AFL-CIO is the model I pull from. I believe we need this type of militancy at this tim of state cuts in MH funding cuts and increases in Prison funding. We hope that Ted Strickland and the Legislaature will lead the way in correcting this problem. If not, we may have to resort to Union tactics such as educational pickets and demonstrations drawing attention to their unfair treatment of Mental Health Consumers.
