HHA Team Members: Elected officials watch the numbers. Please contact yours now.

Team,

Thank you to everyone who reached out to their elected officials after last week’s Frontline article.

If you haven’t yet — or even if you have — I’m asking you to please take two minutes today to contact your elected officials.

If you’ve already sent a message, I strongly encourage you to send another. That’s how important this is. Your employee union 1199SEIU is supportive of these efforts.

Hearing from YOU matters! Every message is counted.

What’s happening: New York is seriously underfunding VNS Health’s MLTC plan, which cares for the most vulnerable people. This directly affects funding for our agency and the care you provide to your clients.

Why this matters: Elected officials track the number of calls and emails they receive. Your message will be noticed and counted!!

How to help:

1. Click here: Contact your elected officials
2. Put in your name and address. It will automatically populate with your elected officials.
3. Hit Send.

I hope you’ll email them. It is easy and takes just two minutes.

Thank you. I also hope you’ll be able to attend this morning’s 8:30 a.m. CEO Zoom, when CEO Dan Savitt will be covering this and other organizational updates.

Jim
