I felt the same way when i read the news about UHC denying ABA coverage to its insureds in certain states, like Louisiana, bc it will disproportionately impact poor people, people who have no other therapy options available, etc.

This was brilliant!

“True advocacy requires more than criticism—it demands a vision for something better, a safety net that catches those who would otherwise fall. Baldwin’s call to embrace the fullness of human experience, with all its contradictions and complexities, serves as a reminder that change must come not at the expense of the vulnerable, but with a mindful commitment to their care and dignity.” This makes so much sense!

“We live individual lives, unique and complex. Yet, we are connected to one another. Responsible for one another. Rise and fall with one another. That is what makes advocacy so hard. Because we are these individual threads tangled up in one another. We could build something beautifully strong together. But we often choose otherwise.

Y’all be easy. And love on one another.”

And THAT! So true!

All of this! Thank you!
