Thank you to Spectrum News 1 Central New York/S Tier for highlighting this important mental health access bill — A9018/S8715 will improve access to Licensed Creative Arts Therapists (LCATs) for NYers who have Medicaid coverage, a invaluable step in addressing the ongoing mental health crisis.

There are over 2,000 LCATs in NY practicing psychotherapy — the 2nd largest group of mental health practitioners — and we are ready to help even more NYers in need!

Thank you also to Senator Samra Brouk & Assemblymember Harry Bronson for sponsoring this bill & for their tireless efforts to improve mental health access in NY!
