How Turning Winds Helped Pass SB191: Expanding Mental Health Care in Montana
Send us a text
This is what it sounds like when a treatment provider steps up, not only for the families they serve, but for families across an entire state.
In this episode of the Turning Winds Podcast, host Kevin Zundl speaks with John and Owen Baisden about their pivotal role in helping write and advocate for Montana Senate Bill 191 (SB191). This bipartisan legislation creates a new license for Residential Treatment Centers (RTCs) in Montana, expanding access to care for teens with commercial insurance.
They share what motivated the effort, the challenges families faced due to the previous licensing gap, and why SB191 marks a major step forward in Montana’s mental health landscape. The conversation also explores how this effort reflects Turning Winds' broader mission to support both clinical excellence and community well-being.
Whether you are a parent, provider, or policymaker, this behind-the-scenes look offers insight into how real change takes shape through collaboration, advocacy, and a clear vision for better care.
