DOVER — Senate leadership has appointed Sen. Ray Seigfried to serve as its delegate to the Behavioral Health Consortium.  

“During my tenure as an executive working for Christiana Care, I spent my career focused on the challenges facing patients and providers, and have worked tirelessly to find solutions. I thank Senate President Pro Tempore Sokola for appointing me to serve on this important body,” said Sen. Seigfried. “This is a great opportunity for me to continue my contributions to our state’s health care industry.”

Created in 2017, the Behavioral Health Consortium (BHC) is an advisory body under the leadership of Lt. Governor Kyle Evans Gay that comprises community advocates, law enforcement, health care professionals, and state leaders. The mission of the BHC is to foster collaboration amongst individuals, family members, providers, advocates, governmental agencies, first responders and community members to develop measurable solutions that directly and positively impact behavioral health outcomes throughout the State of Delaware. 

For scheduling considerations, Sen. Seigfried will step down from the Senate Education Committee.
