Gavin Newsom said would transform the outdated mental health system and address the ongoing homelessness crisis. Revenue from the tax, now between $2 billion and $3 billion a year, has mostly gone to counties to fund mental health services as they see fit under broad guidelines. It provides about one-third of the state's total mental health budget. Mental health treatment programs and support services such as rental assistance and vocational programs for this population also would see a boost. Opponents of the proposition include mental health and disability rights groups, the Howard Jarvis Taxpayers Association and the League of Women Voters of California.

When I finally decided to work on my relationship with my parents, I was able to get sober. My parents didn't know if the next phone call was going to be from the cops or the hospital telling them I had died from an overdose. I just didn't know how to accept their love after their rejection. I wanted to heal the rift in our relationship, but I didn't know where to start yet. My parents finally know who their gay son is, and I finally feel accepted and loved for who I am.

Some health systems are embedding health-equity programs in their business strategies. The report said health inequities led to increased costs associated with premature death, loss of work productivity, and excess medical spending.

BANGKOK (AP) — Military-ruled Myanmar on Tuesday allowed prisoners to have family visitors from outside, a right that had been suspended for 3½ years because of the coronavirus pandemic, the military’s information office and prison officials said. Visitors must be able to provide proof of COVID-19 vaccinations and a household relationship to the prisoner being met. Family visitation rights were suspended after the coronavirus pandemic began in early 2020. Most sectors of society gradually reduced or dropped testing requirements and other virus-fighting measures since 2022, but family visits to prisoners had remained banned. The total number of prisoners held in Myanmar, not only political detainees, isn't publicly known.

[1/3] People react as residents of Tel Aviv show support and solidarity with the families of hostages who are being held in Gaza in Tel Aviv, Israel, October 21, 2023. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has vowed to eliminate Hamas and Israeli troops could enter Gaza at any moment, but many families are urging him to focus solely on the hostages. Israel has a long experience of dealing with hostage crises, but has previously shied away from attempting rescue operations in the densely populated Gaza Strip. Some of the freed Palestinians returned to the ranks of Hamas, including its current leader in Gaza, Yahya Al-Sinwar.

CNN —When someone likes things just so or always seems to have their home in perfect condition, others may say “he is so OCD.”But OCD — obsessive-compulsive disorder — isn’t a nifty personality trait of people who are organized. The condition is a disorder that can impact a person’s work, relationships and well-being, said Stephanie Woodrow, clinical director of the National Anxiety and OCD Treatment Center in Washington, DC. Obsessions and compulsionsIn basic terms, OCD is a mental health disorder experienced by people of all ages and populations, Antonelli said. “Taken together, ERP and medication are considered the ‘first-line’ treatments for OCD,” Antonelli said.
