Monday, January 12, 2009 marks the beginning of a new legislative year - its main focus?  THE BUDGET.

Too often, consumers of mental health and addictive disease services, families and advocates shy away from the budget.  The reason is clear - it’s hard to follow and even more difficult to work with. 

Now is your opportunity to learn about Georgia’s 2009 and 2010 Legislative Budget, who to speak with, what to ask for and how to educate others in your advocacy efforts.     

Speakers:

Alan Essig:  Executive Director, Georgia Budget and Policy Institute 

Senator Johnny Grant – District 25
Dawn Randolph:  President, DIR Consulting Group 

Ellyn Jeager:    Director, Public Policy and Advocacy, MHA of Georgia
