Having a strong, broad-based coalition of interested citizens, organizations, associations, faith-based groups and other community stakeholders is critical to our success in achieving state funding for mental health housing and services in New York State . We have a very important mission to preserve, reform and develop community housing for the thousands of New Yorkers with mental illnesses, who are currently homeless or inappropriately institutionalized. However, we need your help!
