MEDIA
The Voice Awards were developed to honor consumer/peer leaders who have played a vital role in raising awareness and understanding of mental and substance use disorders and promoting the social inclusion of individuals with behavioral health problems. The Voice Awards also provide the opportunity to recognize TV and film writers and producers who have given a voice to individuals with behavioral health problems by incorporating dignified, respectful, and accurate portrayals of these individuals into their scripts, programs, and productions.
If you are interested in covering the 2011 Voice Awards, please contact the Voice Awards Team at voiceawards@vancomm.com.
The Voice Awards are part of the Campaign for Social Inclusion, formerly the Campaign for Mental Health Recovery, a multi-year public service advertising program of the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) and the Ad Council to promote understanding and support for young adults and others with behavioral health problems.
