We are excited to announce another significant milestone for the MFT community: Governor Katie Hobbs has signed our Arizona MFT portability bill, SB 1062, into law! This achievement marks a pivotal moment in our ongoing efforts to enhance mental health care access and support for MFTs across the country.
Building on the momentum of the Access MFTs initiative, Arizona joins Iowa, Virginia, Tennessee, and Maryland as the latest state to enact legislation supporting MFT licensure portability. This collective progress underscores the growing recognition of the importance of MFTs and the need for flexible, accessible licensure options to serve diverse communities effectively. This change opens doors for new opportunities and expands MFTs' professional options.
As we celebrate this victory, we encourage you to stay informed, engaged, and active in advocacy efforts to shape the future of the MFT profession. Your involvement and support are crucial as we work together to advance licensure portability and ensure access to quality mental health care for all.
