STATE SEN. KATE BROWN RECEIVES NATIONAL AWARD FOR MENTAL HEALTH WORK
SALEM –
The American Mental Health Counselors Association announced today that State Senator Kate Brown has won the 2004 Public and
Community Service Award for her “unwavering commitment, hard work and unselfish dedication” throughout her legislative
career.
“This is one of the greatest honors of my career – my thanks go to the AMHCA and to their Oregon
chapter, the Oregon Mental Health Counselors Association,” said Brown, D-Portland/Milwaukie. “Mental health issues,
especially those of children, are near and dear to my heart, and as long as I’m in public office I’ll be fighting
for them.”
According to Sheila Christensen, Past-President. and current President Jen Gomoll of the Oregon
chapter of the AMHCA, the Oregon board selected Brown based on her work on and commitment to mental health issues and awareness.
The AMHCA board was looking for a legislator who “serves the community and doesn’t give up. And Kate Brown does
that,” Christensen said.
“The AMHCA and OMHCA recognize the efforts of this tenacious and committed
mental health advocate in the state of Oregon. Senator Brown has an outstanding
service record in the state of Oregon
that reflects significant contributions to the professional concerns of AMHCA and OMHCA.”
From the start
of her career in 1993, Brown has been a strong advocate for Oregonians with mental illness. She introduced a bill that allows
parents to retain custody of their children when the children go into state custody for mental health treatment. In1997 session
– and every session thereafter – Brown worked to require mental health parity
in health insurance coverage.
In 1999, Brown passed legislation creating an ombudsman position in the Department of Human Services to address suicide issues.
In addition, Brown served on the Children’s Suicide Prevention Task Force from 1996-1998 and serves on another
panel that introduced legislation last year to create a Juvenile Psychiatric Security Review Board Process.
Earlier
this year, each of the 41 state branches of the AMHCA was allowed to nominate two candidates for the national award. Brown
was the only legislator recognized at this year’s Annual Conference in Washington, D.C. She was presented with her award
at the state Capitol in Salem since she was unable to attend the official awards ceremony at the annual AMHCA conference in
Washington D.C. in July.
Brown thanked the AMHCA and OMHCA for their commitment to the mental health profession
as well. If you would like to find our more information about these associations, please visit their websites at www.amhca.com
