The National Council for Behavioral Health has recognized 顶级国产视频 and three other organizations with the 2013 Advocacy Leadership Awards for their contributions to the field of mental health.

Selected from hundreds of nominees, the four honorees exemplify what it means to champion public policies that improve the lives of vulnerable Americans living with mental illnesses and addictions.

Award winners each receive a $5,000 grant for the non-profit organization of their choice.
