The House Ways and Means Committee released their budget proposal on April 16. Since then, Representatives have filed 1,650 amendments. The debate begins next week and members can still co-sponsor amendments. Co-sponsorship is very important to the success of amendments being included in the final House budget.

Please contact your representative to request their support and co-sponsorship of these six amendments:

Amendment #1597 Jail and Arrest Diversity Grant Program\u00a0(Rep. Manny Cruz) would fund the full annualized value of approved project applications for the Jail Diversion Program (JDP) at $21.5 million. JDP provides funding to municipalities and behavioral health providers for diversion projects in partnership with law enforcement. This program helps prevent individuals experiencing a behavioral health crisis from being arrested or incarcerated, and instead connects them with urgent, therapeutic services and supports. It also reduces strain on law enforcement, the judicial system, and hospital emergency departments.
Amendment #1433 Adult Mental Health and Support Services (Rep. James O'Day) would restore over $16.3 million in cuts to maintain current levels of adult mental health and support services, including respite services, Adult Community Clinical Services (ACCS), clubhouses, and the Program for Assertive Community Treatment. These essential services are vital lifelines for adults living with mental health conditions and are all currently operating at capacity\u2014meaning any cuts would result in a loss of access to care.
Amendment #1344 Safe Havens (Rep. Lindsay Sabadosa) would increase funding for Safe Havens by $3 million and fully annualize the program\u2019s budget. Safe Haven programs are low-threshold, supportive housing for individuals experiencing chronic homelessness with multiple disabilities, including mental health and substance use conditions, who are not served well by the traditional shelter system.\u00a0Safe Haven programs offer transitional housing, connect individuals to behavioral health and medical services, and serve as a bridge to permanent housing.
Amendment #883 Department of Mental Health (DMH) Rental Subsidy Program (Rep. Sean Garballey) would include the $5 million needed to meet the demand for the DMH Rental Subsidy Program, which provides rental vouchers to DMH clients. In addition to housing support, clients also receive services from community providers to help maintain their tenancy, health, and recovery. Stable, affordable housing is essential for effective behavioral health treatment and long-term recovery.
Amendment #1096 Cape Cod & Islands Community Health Center (Rep. David Vieira) would maintain the current level of 16 inpatient beds for individuals in treatment for psychiatric conditions at the Pocasset Mental Health Center, which is the only state-run mental health facility and one of only two inpatient psychiatric units on Cape Cod.
Amendment #1550 Supporting DMH Caseworkers (Rep. Marjorie Decker) requires the Department of Mental Health (DMH) case manager staffing levels to not be reduced below fiscal year 2025 staffing levels for child and adolescent services in DMH; further requires DMH case manager staffing levels to not be reduced below fiscal year 2025 for adult mental health and support services.
Thank you for your advocacy!

The amendments focus on addressing emergency department boarding, peer respite housing, permanent supportive housing for those who are chronically homeless, and monitoring of the Bridgewater State Hospital, which are all issues that deeply impact our NAMI Mass community. May I count on your support to co-sponsor the following amendments? \n\nAmendment #798 Adult Emergency Room Diversion Initiative (Rep. Marjorie Decker) increases the Department of Mental Health's Emergency Department Diversion Program for Adults, which partners with community-based mobile respite and site-based respite providers, by $15 million. This program supports individuals transitioning out of emergency departments back into the community and diverts individuals from unnecessary hospitalization. A $15 million increase will fund seven new adult mobile or site-based respite programs and expand eight existing programs so they can serve more people across Massachusetts. \n\nAmendment #1496 Peer Respite Housing (Rep Lindsay Sabadosa), would allocate $2 million to create two new peer respite programs, one of which must be LGBTQIA+ focused and located in Western Massachusetts. These respite programs allow adults to seek care in a non-institutional setting as an alternative to hospital boarding. \n\nAmendment #375 Safe Havens (Rep. Lindsay Sabadosa) would increase funding for Safe Havens by $3.5 million, which would fund 7 new Safe Haven programs to focus on ensuring geographically equitable access to services. Safe Haven programs are low-threshold, supportive housing for individuals experiencing chronic homelessness with multiple disabilities, including mental health and substance use conditions, who are not served well by the traditional shelter system. Safe Haven programs offer transitional housing, connect individuals to behavioral health and medical services, and serve as a bridge to permanent housing.\n\nAmendment #667 Bridgewater State Hospital Monitoring (Rep. Christine Barber) increases funds by $100,000 to the Disability Law Center (DLC) to monitor the service delivery reforms at Bridgewater State Hospital (BSH). As members of the Bridgewater State Hospital Coalition, NAMI Massachusetts supports and uplifts the work of DLC at BSH. One of our priority pieces of legislation this year is to transfer BSH from the Department of Corrections to the Department of Mental Health. The reporting done by DLC provides invaluable insight into the conditions at BSH and, for the benefit of the individuals at BSH, we need DLC to continue their work. \n\nThank you for your support, \n{{contact_full_name}}\n{{contact_address}}", "pos_subject": "Please support these FY24 House Budget Amendments ", "rate_limit": null, "registration_page": "/api/grassrootsregistrationpage/1450/", "regulation_id": null, "required_video_link": "", "resource_uri": "/api/grassrootscampaign/120622/", "share_story_type": 1, "share_story_video_duration": null, "short_description": "We need you to call on your members of Congress to add their names as co-sponsors for FY24 Budget Amendments.
