Happy #pride🌈 from #bringithomenys ! #mentalhealth & Pride go hand-in-hand since due to a variety of cultural & social factors, LGBTQ+ adults are more than 2X more likely than heterosexual adults to experience a MH condition & Transgender people are nearly 4X as likely. 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

We’re so focused on the 4% TII for mental health & substance abuse disorders that we’re getting tunnel vision! ACL again joined fellow NYS behavioral health advocates down at the Capitol today where we urged legislators to include a 4%TII in the 2026-2027 budget! #bringithomenys

Mental health care delayed is mental health care denied. Proud to stand w/ advocates & providers demanding passage of my bill, A8055, to carve out behavioral health services from Medicaid Managed Care. New Yorkers should not have to fight endless red tape to access care.

[Bring It Home Campaign @BringItHomeNYS]

What does a “good day” look like to you? For some, it’s feeling safe. For others, it’s support, connection, stability, or a place to call home. #mentalhealth looks different for everyone & access to housing can make more good days possible. #BringItHomeNYS #MentalHealthMonth
