New Ways was represented at the Florida Capitol yesterday!
Todd, Mariam, Carol Lynn and Cheyanne had the opportunity to speak to various State Representatives and Senators regarding the differences between state-licensed mental health professionals and Master's Level Pastoral Counselors, and why both are necessary.
We're very thankful for the indiciduals who took time out of their busy schedules to meet with us, ask questions, and offer support to our ministry. A special thanks to Representative Chad Johnson (and his incredible wife Angela) for hosting us!
