While they weren’t fully funded, they did get some $$$$ to create and ACT TEAM in Utah County; Crisis Receiving Center in Cache and 2 more MCOT teams! Best part, these bills were unanimously voted through. Grateful ♥️ #afspadvocacy

Being in the halls of Congress, meeting with legislators and their staffers, and seeing real change happen is incredibly powerful. The cherry on top is being able to do it with my amazing colleagues and over 200 volunteers from across our Chapter network.
