MH Update – 5/8/20 – COVID Impact Survey for Recipients of Services and Families from OMH


The Office of Mental Health is conducting a survey to help us better understand the impact of COVID-19 in our community.  The results from this survey will be included in a briefing document for executive leadership at the Office of Mental Health.  Your input is critical to help us understand the needs of the community and help us prioritize policy and program decisions.  The survey is anonymous. We are looking for responses from people who receive services from OMH programs and their family members.  We recognize that some people may have trouble accessing the survey, so we’re asking service providers and advocates to reach out to individuals and families and complete the survey on their behalf.

People can also call the Office of Consumer Affairs to participate in the survey over the phone.  Our number is 518.473.6579

If language or translation services are needed, please contact Matt Canuteson, Diversity & Inclusion Officer, Matthew.Canuteson@omh.ny.gov
