Inunity Alliance Inc

Services to constituents - the coalition provides advocacy on behalf of its member agencies on the new york city and new york state fronts, working through the national council of mental wellbeing to advocate on the federal level as well. We evaluate state, city and federal budgets, regulations and proposed legislation; promote laws and policies that nourish and sustain community based providers, affording them the ability to deliver the highest quality care and service to residents of new york city and state. The coalition strives to make important contributions to the public policy debate that will improve access and delivery of care and end stigma and prejudice against people with mental illness and chemical dependencies.

City initiatives - the coalition is pleased to receive funds from the new york city council, administered by the new york city department of health and mental hygiene. These funds enable us to provide workplace training on court involved youth and a professional learning center to educate behavioral health providers on cutting edge clinical and business practices to advance service delivery, improve health outcomes, and increase the fiscal viability of community based organizations. Our comprehensive training package is targeted to multiple levels of the behavioral health workforce, from practitioners to executives, to facilitate a top down and bottom up approach to system transformation. Training attendees will gain the skills needed to be adaptive and effective in an integrated, value based health care environment.
