St. Clair County CMH Announces Recipient “Rights Champions”

Every month, St. Clair County Community Mental Health (CMH) recognizes individuals and/or teams for their extraordinary contributions to the Rights Protection System, which protects the human rights of individuals with a mental illness.

Individuals and teams are recognized for demonstrating dignity and respect to individuals with mental illness, for innovation and creativity that resulted in improved service outcomes, for enriching or enhancing a recipient’s recovery journey, and for taking actions to strengthen communication and cooperation throughout the Rights Protection System. Award recipients receive a letter of congratulations, certificate of recognition, and a “Rights Champions” memento. “Rights Champions” are also highlighted on the CMH Facebook page and are eligible for the individual/team of the year awards presented during CMH’s Annual Meeting in May.

For more information visit CMH’s website at scccmh.org or on Facebook @SCCCMH.
