[quote=Anonymous]How about looking at this issue a different way? We could have an incentives for people to become social workers, psychologists, psychiatrists, caregivers, teachers and if you get free or heavily reduced college tuition, you work with the veteran, underserved youth and/or homeless population for 3-4 years. A mental health crisis or traumatic event is why a large proportion of people fall into homelessness. Help people before they fall into that circumstance. There are not enough mental healthcare providers in the United States. Somehow going into a career where you care for and heal people (except for going to medical school to be a surgeon) is not highly valued in our society. [/quote]
