Barnett’s campaign website highlighted the following issues:[5]
| “ |
Health Care Mental Health One in four people is directly affected by mental illness, so this is a widespread issue throughout Virginia. I will support efforts to enable people suffering from a mental illness to recover and lead productive lives. I have seen, first hand, the challenges mental illness poses for individuals and families, and the way persons suffering from addiction can impact the lives of those around them. I will be at the vanguard advocating for enhanced prevention services, public education, and treatment resources for affected individuals and families. Public Safety As a legislator, I would also like to see the innovative practices in Chesterfield – such as the mobile integrated community response team - emulated across the state. I have high regard for the services they provide, and will continue to support their outstanding work in this community. Education A strong public educational system attracts families to Chesterfield, ensures the future viability of our community, and helps to power our local economy with well-educated young people.
