SAMHSA Stakeholder Feedback

I suggest SAMHSA...

Do not fund services unless they are truly practicing principles of recovery.

I am recovering and choose to only utilize support that is recovery oriented in practice (reality), and not just on paper or as a goal, which means I have no professional services where I live, only peer support/mutual support. We need more funding/support/TA to create peer run/operated services across the country. It's a win-win situation (creates jobs, increases choices).

        Change the guide lines for disabled.. The ones in place are old...We have people on ssi and ssdi who use the system to stay high on drugs.. offer tax abatement What is a tax abatement, you may ask. A tax abatement is when a taxing board grants a taxpayer a stay of paying a tax for a short or long term, for a total or percentage of the tax. They are given for any reason, like for the building of a new building to increase employment. A company having financial problems. Non profit groups, "churches, boy scout camp sites, etc". I have found private homes for questionable reasons.
