VTMHI Wins Mental Health Champion Award - Virginia Telemental Health Initiative

The Virginia Telemental Health Initiative (VTMHI) was selected to receive a 2024 Mental Health Champion Award from the Virginia Health Care Foundation (VHCF). This special award was created to recognize those that have gone above and beyond to improve the mental health of their communities. Our team was honored to accept this award at the Cheers for Champions! luncheon on June 6 alongside other mental health champion recipients.
