About this listen

The looming deadline for Ohio's budget, which Governor Mike DeWine must sign by June 30th at midnight, creates an urgent backdrop for critical conversations about mental health funding. As pandemic-era federal dollars disappear from community pipelines, state lawmakers face increasingly difficult decisions about which programs to fund and which to scale back.

State Representative Jodi Salvo, a Republican, and State Senator Casey Weinstein, a Democrat, offer candid perspectives regarding budget challenges. Their shared commitment to the mental well-being of their constituents provides hope that even after facing economic constraints, Ohio can continue building on recent progress in suicide prevention and mental health support.
