The Connecticut Parity Coalition is a group of advocates from more than 25 organizations and associations across Connecticut working with state legislators, consumers, and other groups to elevate behavioral health access and accountability.

The coalition educates and advocates for policy changes that will protect individuals living with mental health and substance use disorder conditions. Full parity will ensure that consumers’ rights are protected and that they are treated the same as individuals with other health conditions.

Mental Health Connecticut’s Christian Damiana, Policy Manager, is the Connecticut Parity Coalition Coordinator. Contact Christian at CDamiana@mhconn.org or (860) 515-7569 to get involved.
