The National Council’s new national workforce survey, conducted by The Harris Poll, revealed the mental health and substance use care workforce is facing an exodus of workers and demanding immediate action from lawmakers. National Council for Mental  Wellbeing surveyed 750 behavioral health care workers and more than 2,000 U.S. adults to assess the state of the workforce – specifically, how workforce shortages have impacted the field.
