(Albany, NY)- State Senator John J. Bonacic (R/C/I-Mt. Hope) met in his Albany office today with advocates from the Association for Community Living to discuss budget requests for the 2018-2019 FY Budget and also their “Bring it Home” campaign. The Association for Community Living is a statewide membership organization of not-for-profit agencies that provide housing and rehabilitation services to over 30,000 people diagnosed with serious and persistent psychiatric disabilities. The “Bring it Home” campaign is a coalition of community-based mental health housing providers, mental health advocates, consumers and their families, urging New York State to adequately fund community-based mental health housing programs for individuals with psychiatric disorders.
