Put this In the Subject Line : Restore Consumer Voice in IHSS Public Authority Consumer Advisory Committee or Governing Board: Support
My name is ___________ and I am an IHSS (consumer, provider, advocate, IHSS supporter, or member of a Consumer Advisory Committee or Governing Board). Please support the budget request to restore funding for IHSS Public Authority Consumer Advisory Committees or Governing Boards. Lack of input from these Consumer Committees undermines a main principle of the IHSS Public Authority which is for consumers to tell policy makers about IHSS issues and problems. This funding would provide $56,000/year for each IHSS Public Authority to invite consumer input, conduct listening sessions on provider shortage crisis; and provide trainings on being an employer. Thank you for supporting this budget request.
