Advocates rally against state mental health cuts (Missouri)
May 5 Springfield News-Leader story - "State-funded drugs and services for people with mental illnesses are being threatened again this year as Missouri legislators and state health officials focus on the Medicaid program in looking for ways to trim costs. State budget projections are predicting shortfalls ranging from $300 million to $1 billion in 2004. Mental-health advocates predict the proposed cuts will do more harm over the long term than good. Advocates from southwest Missouri and across the state hope to take their concerns to legislators today following a 1 p.m. rally at the Capitol."
