The Schizophrenia & Related Disorders Alliance of America ( SARDAA ) presented Congressman Tim Murphy with its very first Exceptional Legislator Award for his efforts in the mental health field , as well as his landmark crisis mental health reform bill , the Helping Families in Mental Health Crisis Act , which was signed into law in December .
“ I ’ m honored and humbled to receive this award ,” said Congressman Murphy , whose legislation provides real treatment to those suffering from serious mental illnesses like schizophrenia . “ It ’ s groups like SARDAA who truly make a difference for families in mental health crisis , providing so much help , and so much hope , for those living with brain disorders like schizophrenia and bipolar disorder . I am so grateful for their efforts and look forward to continue working with them to get real treatment to those most in need .”
While other organizations engage in support and advocacy services , SARDAA focuses specifically on schizophreniarelated disorders . Inspired by the vision that every person with schizophrenia or a related disorder achieves recovery , SARDAA promotes improvement in the lives of those individuals and their families by providing support , hope and awareness so that early diagnosis , treatment and community services increase recovery .
