Important Bills to Consider Testifying On 3.5, 3.7 & 3.8.13

 www.cga.ct.gov

I'll be testifying on Bills 1023 & 6545 on 3.5.2013 & Bills 5740, 374, 5992 & 262 Friday. Please go to cga.ct.gov to see the Bills, all are very important. One is for Mandatory Behavioral Health screening for ALL Children. So far there are no answers as to who will screen, who the results are reported to and why and where services will be provided. All personal and professional industry testimony to date has illustrated that there are too few service providers, too few who are affordable to families and there are long waiting list for public services. In addition the funding for the in school mental health centers was cut last month. That is only one of the 6 Bills...

And, Bill 1029  Hearing 3.7.2013

AN ACT CONCERNING HEALTH INSURANCE COVERAGE FOR AUTISM SPECTRUM DISORDERS.

To retain health insurance coverage for the treatment of autism spectrum disorders as currently defined.
