Good afternoon,
In support of the Daniel’s Law Task Force and the State of New York, The Alliance for Rights and Recovery is sending links to surveys to gather information on crisis services from people who have experienced a behavioral health crisis or supported another person through one. The Daniel’s Law Task Force was established to identify potential operational and financial needs to support trauma-informed, community and public health-based crisis responses for anyone in the state experiencing a mental health, alcohol use, and/or substance use crisis.
NYSTEC, an independent (non-state) consulting company, is coordinating the distribution and analysis of two surveys for people with lived experience with crisis support services. One survey is from the perspective of someone who experienced a behavioral health crisis, and the other survey is from the perspective of someone who supported another through a crisis. Input is also requested from people who experienced a behavioral health crisis but chose to manage the crisis on their own without contacting crisis services. The information gathered from the surveys will be aggregated and shared with the Task Force to inform their final report and recommendations.
We are requesting your input based on your experiences with behavioral health crises. We kindly ask that you complete the survey by July 10, 2024.

Thank you
