Please submit a message to your Congressional delegation in support of funding for the HRSA mental health workforce programs, including GPE and BHWET.
This message addresses the urgent funding challenges that jeopardize HRSA-funded psychology and behavioral health programs. It outlines the impact of the programs on training and workforce development, and the negative impacts of withheld funding.
Logistical notes so you can participate successfully:
- This tool will automatically identify and match you to your elected officials once you enter your address. However, it cannot match P.O. boxes to Congressional offices, so please enter a street address.
- Some offices may require a phone number - you will get an on-screen alert if so.
- If you are a first-time user or entered a different email address than before, VoterVoice might give you an extra step. This is an internet security measure. A window will appear, saying that it sent a code to that email address. Please check your spam folder if you do not get the code within 5 minutes. You will be able to send your message once you enter the code. If you check the "remember me" box, this will not occur again.
- A small number of Senate offices have limitations on message length. If your office is one of them, you will get a notification on the screen and will be able to edit the message before sending it.
- This platform allows users to enter the prefix of their choosing. However, congressional offices vary in terms of what prefixes their mail systems accept. If you see a notification regarding your prefix, it is due to one of the receiving congressional offices' inbox settings. Please contact that office directly to ask them to update what prefixes their mailing system accepts, as this request will be more meaningful coming from a constituent. Their website will list contact information.
