The purpose of the ISPN Legislative Council is to develop awareness of issues critical to the practice of psychiatric

rights of psychiatric-mental health clients. The Council also is charged with the role of communicating the ideas and responses to legislative
issues for ISPN members. The Council will provide the necessary resources for members to have a voice as appropriate.
