Position Statement on Voter Suppression in the United States and the Impact on Mental Health

Introduction

The Global Alliance for Behavioral Health and Social Justice is a behavioral health organization that embeds its work in human rights and social justice principles, including non-discrimination, respect, and dignity.

The Global Alliance strongly opposes all attempts to restrict this most fundamental constitutional right. The strength and vibrancy of our democracy are dependent on the right of all people to vote regardless of their race, ethnicity, religion, zip code, economic status, ability, sex, gender identity, sexual orientation, or party affiliation.
