Administrative and Regulatory Proceedings

The Third House attorneys are experienced and well-versed in administrative procedures. Representation of clients in administrative and regulatory proceedings is a critical aspect of total governmental affairs management for our clients.  Given that a majority of businesses are heavily regulated by one or more governmental agencies, the Third House advises routinely monitors rules, regulations and mandates affecting our client’s business operations.

Removing the Mask

 It is a great pleasure for me to announce the 2007 Gala Fundraiser for Mental Health America of Indiana (MHAI).  This year’s theme will again be “Removing the Mask.”  MHAI (formerly Mental Health Association in Indiana) has held its annual fundraising event for more than 20 years. The funds are used to advocate for the rights of those with mental and addictive disorders, and to educate the general public about these issues.  MHAI is helping to remove the mask of stigma from those impacted by mental disorders. The event will be held on Thursday, October 25, 2006, at the Indiana Roof Ballroom, beginning with a reception at 6 p.m.  The evening will feature a return performance by the exciting and nationally acclaimed entertainment troupe DanceTrance, who will be presenting a stage performance as well as an energized dance party. 

MHAI provides funding to educate the public about mental illnesses and addiction issues.  MHAI also advocates on behalf of people with mental and addictive disorders, provides volunteers to work with residents of state mental health facilities, and establishes prevention programs throughout the state.  MHAI includes a network of 40 chapters across Indiana with more than 20,000 members.

Sponsorship Mental Health America

  Please join us for the evening by becoming a member of the 2007 MHAI “Removing the Mask” Gala dinner committee.  The members of the dinner committee agree to purchase or sell a table of eight for $1,000 (or $125 per seat).  If you prefer, you also may become a member of the dinner committee by helping to underwrite the event for $1,000.  And, you (or your organization) may certainly raise your level of support for this event by becoming a gold, silver or bronze level supporter.  Many of our sponsors submit this form directly to their accounts payable departments to save the time involved in creating a new invoice document. I hope that you will support the ongoing efforts and important work of the MHAI.  Please complete the enclosed response form, return it at your earliest convenience and look forward to an entertaining evening at the 2007 Mental Health America of Indiana Gala fundraiser.

Project consulting is a mechanism in which the client can harness the Third House’s unique qualities and expertise to solve specific problems, develop and/or implement plans, and gather specific information.   The Third House will compliment a client’s existing business-to-business relationships with certain project requests and development ventures.
