Dear Friends and Colleagues,
We’re writing to ask you to take immediate action to protect the rights of New Yorkers with mental health / substance use conditions.
NYLPI as a part of the Daniel’s Law Coalition is asking you to support Daniel’s Law (S.3670 / A.4617) a bill designed to transform the way New York responds to mental health and substance use crises, by replacing a police response with a healthcare response.
We need your help! By clicking here, you will be able to ask state legislators to pass Daniel’s Law and include the $22 million initial phase-in of Daniel’s Law — as proposed by the Governor’s Daniel’s Law Taskforce and set forth in the Senate and Assembly budgets — in the FY ’26 budget. And it will take you less than two minutes!
Thank you and please forward this email to all your colleagues and friends!
