January 26, 2010
I have been reading the messages you left regarding your own experiences with struggling loved ones. These stories reinforce the urgency of our goal to reform the current state laws. I am now working to connect with legal advocates who can help translate this momentum into a formal proposal for policy change.
January 26, 2010
The momentum behind this initiative proves that many families are struggling with this exact crisis in silence. Your collective response demonstrates a clear consensus that the current laws regarding involuntary care require immediate revision. This level of interest confirms that we are pursuing a policy change that addresses an urgent public need.

My son is killing himself and I cant do a single thing about it because he says hes fine. The system is completely broken.
Too many young people dying because we cant force them to get help. Fix this now.
Going through this with my brother too. It is hell. No parent or sibling should have to watch this happen with zero options.
Finally someone is speaking up about this. Families are suffering while the laws protect the addiction instead of the person.
Its tragic watching someone you love turn into a ghost. We need these laws changed yesterday.

Total insanity that we have to wait for them to hit rock bottom or die before we can step in. Change the law!
