New York’s mental health and addiction recovery services are in a complete state of crisis: we are on life support and must get aid from NYS government!
Accordingly, we must take concerted action immediately to urge Governor Hochul to ensure that a significant commitment to expanding funding to support our extremely hard-pressed mental health and addiction recovery services sector is in the budget her Administration will be releasing in the coming weeks!
WE HAVE LITTLE TIME LEFT AND MUST ACT THIS WEEK!
Please join NYAPRS and many of our other community colleagues
in supporting tomorrow’s call in day to Governor Hochul
Governor Hochul has been supportive to our cause but we need to raise our voices tomorrow and urge her to support a 5.4% COLA as well as $500 million in additional funding for our workforce, services and support.
We need over a thousand calls made to her office TOMORROW!
Please make that call and encourage community staffers, recovering people and family members to make those calls and to encourage others to do the same! See details below. Thank you!
