Attention NYS Council CEOs & Agency Advocates re: Workforce Survey

June 29, 2023

As we prepare for the SFY 2024-25 legislative session, the importance of workforce data is critical to our advocacy efforts and our ability to secure the resources necessary to sustain our operations, programs and services. To this end, a group of regional and statewide organizations representing adult and children/youth mental health and substance use disorder providers, peers and families requests that you ensure completion of the brief survey (linked below).

The information collected from your agency will only be used in the aggregate, and no individual providers will be identified. We are collecting organization names solely for internal purposes.   You may receive this link from multiple associations/coalitions; please have your organization complete the survey at the link only once.  

DEADLINE JULY 24th  

Please complete the survey at this link: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/SJZM933

If you or your staff have any questions regarding this survey, please reach out to me at:  (518) 461-8200.

Thank you!
