NJAMHAA’s campaign, Diverse Faces: All Are Worthy of Full Investment, features individuals' successes that were made possibly by behavioral healthcare and social services they received. Such individual victories also translate into benefits for the state overall.

Wentz, PhD, President and CEO of NJAMHAA.
