Mental health issues a top priority

Improving the lives of Montanans who are suffering from mental health issues will be a top priority for the legislature this session.  A current shortage of care is impacting our Montana families and communities, and it is our collective responsibility to ensure that all Montanans suffering from a mental illness have access to adequate care in the community and, for those who need it, at our state acute care facilities.  When addressing the state’s mental health needs, it is vital that we focus on the entire continuum of care, including community treatment options, improving our state facilities, investing in youth diversion, and, perhaps most importantly, passing the governor’s Healthy Montana Plan.

Charles E. "Chuckie" Clinkenbeard

Charles E. “Chuckie” Clinkenbeard passed away in the loving arms of his friends and family on Sunday, July 20, 2014 at St. Patrick Hospital, due to complications from sepsis.  Chuckie lived and loved in a way that made everyone he came in contact with feel blessed. The impact he had on those around him was immeasurable. He was not the kind of man to tell you what you wanted to hear, but what you needed to hear, yet in a way that left no sting because it was always backed by love. He was generous with his worldly belongings and his love, but most of all, he was generous with his time. Despite suffering enormous medical challenges, he never complained or felt sorry for himself. Instead, he focused on what he could do for others. This world was a better place with him in it.
