Tammy Baldwin: “We don't invest nearly enough in prevention activities…”

“What outcomes would you like to see for individuals that are experiencing those challenges? Yeah, well, first of all, ample resources that we can then prevent things from getting worse. Right? So We don't invest nearly enough in prevention activities, whether that's with young people, about the dangers of addiction, but also with mental health. Catching things early. If you come to know somebody who's maybe had a trauma in their life, trying to make sure that it doesn't get exacerbated over time, I'd like to see more mental health services in schools.” (06:20–06:37)
