Take Action: Protect SAMHSA

Advocacy_Hands Raised_GI-1160947475_7105x4742

The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), the federal agency that leads efforts on mental health and substance use, is facing threats of major staff and funding cuts, according to recent media reports. 

 

Roughly 100 employees – more than 10% of the agency’s workforce – have already been fired, and additional cuts could amount to 50-70% of the agency’s workforce. 

 

At a time when the country is facing both mental health and addiction crises, the funding, oversight, and guidance SAMHSA provides is more critical than ever. 

 

Send a letter to your members of Congress urging them to help protect SAMHSA from cuts that will jeopardize the recent progress made on reducing overdose deaths.
