NYAPRS Note: We must continue to push for an 8.5% Cost of Living Adjustment for the behavioral health workforce. Every group in New York is advocating for their desired funding as we get closer to the budget deadline next Monday afternoon. We must keep the pressure up to make sure we get the desperately needed improved funding. Email your representatives to tell them it is imperative the Behavioral Health Workforce receives an 8.5% COLA in this year’s budget. Use the link from our friends at MHANYS to quickly send emails.
