Provider Membership
Provider membership is defined as OMH licensed and certified agencies in New York State. Provider dues are calculated based on each agency’s total children’s mental health budgets on most OMH licensed children services. Provider members are eligible to vote and receive more detailed information from the Coalition, including the ability to participate in various Listserves allowing you to share and obtain information pertinent to children’s behavioral health.
Allied Membership
Our Allied Membership dues are set at $5000. Allied members can include individuals and organizations that are involved and interested in children’s behavioral health reforms, but not necessarily providing direct services. The only eligibility criteria are your interest in the work and advocacy of the NYS Coalition for Children’s Behavioral Health, the strength of families, and the social/emotional development of children and youth.
ListServs: When you sign up for one or more of our ListServs, you will receive timely information on issues pertinent to your program and have the opportunity to post questions or comments and share information with your colleagues across New York State. Join list serv (members only) >
