Hello CT Advocacy Friends!
CTAMFT has a CALL TO ACTION to submit a testimony template for SB 1246. This bill is seeking to implement some of Governor Lamont's budget proposal item of removing CT licensure fees for mental health providers, including Marriage and Family Therapists. The financial burdens of being a mental health professional in CT continue to increase. CTAMFT applauds the Governor's efforts to lessen the burden with removing initial and annual licensure fees.
You can find the testimony template below
Simply add your personal information to the areas highlighted in red, save as a pdf and upload to the submission page here
https://www.cga.ct.gov/aspx/CGATestimonySub/CGAtestimonysubmission.aspx?comm_code=FIN
Please share this template with all CT MFTs, Mental Health Providers and your family and friends! WE ALL NEED TO GIVE MENTAL HEALKTH PROVIDERS A BREAK and this is a great start.
