Call for Nominations: Mental Health Paladin Award 2026

Do you know someone who has been a true champion for mental health in Georgia? Someone whose leadership, courage, and commitment to recovery have helped move our systems — and our communities — forward?

In 2022, during Mental Health Day at the Capitol, the Behavioral Health Services Coalition proudly presented the inaugural Mental Health Paladin Award to Andy Miller. In 2026, we will once again honor an extraordinary leader when the award is presented in person at Mental Health Day at the Capitol on February 18, 2026.

The title Paladin — meaning hero or leading champion for a cause — was originally suggested by former Coalition Chair, the late Sherry Jenkins Tucker, and later endorsed by the Coalition. A Paladin represents courage, integrity, and unwavering advocacy for what is right.

🛡️ Award Criteria
Nominees must:
1. Demonstrate sustained leadership in mental health advocacy across Georgia.
2. Consistently support recovery and recovery-focused services.
3. Be bold, courageous, and unflinching in confronting stigma.

📅 Nomination Deadline: January 16, 2026
📝 Submit a nomination here:
👉 https://form.jotform.com/253205852861054

Help us recognize those who stand in the gap, lead with purpose, and champion mental health for all. 💙

Because Paladins don’t just believe in change — they fight for it.

✨ Happy New Year from the Georgia Mental Health Consumer Network✨

As we step into a new year, we do so with hope, purpose, and a renewed commitment to mental health and recovery for all. This past year reminded us of the power of connection, peer support, and community—and we’re carrying those lessons forward as we continue to uplift voices, expand access, and strengthen support across Georgia.

Thank you to our peers, partners, advocates, and communities who walk alongside us every day. Together, we are building a future rooted in wellness, resilience, and possibility.

Here’s to new beginnings, continued progress, and the work ahead—we’re ready. Welcome 2026!

A huge thank you to everyone who joined us for GMHCN’s Holiday Classic this past Thursday. From the cozy warmth of the fire pit to the festive music and incredible food at The Lazy Dog, it was the perfect way to celebrate the season together.
The best part of the holidays is the community we build, and seeing everyone gathered to share laughter and joy was truly the highlight of our year. Thank you for making our 2025 celebration so special! 🥂🎄

Today we “wrapped” up an incredible WRAP training at Skyland Trail! 💚

Huge thank you to our amazing facilitators, Denise Hardy and Wendell Fields, for creating a supportive, empowering space where participants could dig into wellness tools, personal triggers, and practical strategies for staying grounded and well. We’re grateful for every person who showed up ready to learn, reflect, and build a plan that supports real-life recovery.

WRAP reminds us: we have options, we have support, and we have power in our own wellness journey.

Today, we had the honor of celebrating recovery, resilience, and transformation at the Fulton County Treatment Court Drug Court Graduation. Each graduate represents courage, commitment, and the power of choosing a new path forward.

GMHCN staff were grateful to stand alongside Fulton County and support the incredible work being done to walk with individuals on their recovery journeys. Moments like these remind us that recovery is not just possible—it is happening every day.

A special thank you to Robert Pugh, keynote speaker, for sharing his powerful recovery story and reminding us all of an essential truth: We do recover.

Congratulations to the graduates as you continue unwrapping new beginnings and building lives rooted in hope and purpose.

We are deeply grateful to the Georgia Council for Recovery for welcoming us and providing space to highlight these empowering and transformative trainings and programs. Together, we are building pathways that uplift individuals, strengthen communities, and advance recovery across Georgia.
