We have limited time to influence Governor Hochul's choice to sign A1171A into law. This will establish private insurance to cover the services by licensed creative arts therapists in New York State. The video below features testimonials from clients and therapists about the importance of the creative arts therapies in supporting mental health. Access to affordable treatment is vital, particularly in light of the COVID-19 pandemic, community violence, widespread racial discrimination, assault on bodily autonomy, and other crises impacting mental health. Please reach out to Governor Hochul and share this video on social media.
