    2018 ANNUAL REPORT Our Mission

    2018 ANNUAL REPORT Our Mission Higher education is New England’s most critical sustainable resource. The region’s governors knew that over 60 years ago when they founded the New England Board of Higher Education (NEBHE). Today, NEBHE promotes greater education opportunities and services for the residents of New England and its more than 270 colleges and universities. It works across the six New England states to help leaders assess, develop and implement sound education practices and policies of regional significance; to promote regional cooperation and programs that encourage the efficient use and sharing of educational resources; and to strengthen the relationship between higher education and the economic well-being and quality of life in New England. Six New England governors’ signatures authorize the original compact founding NEBHE. 2 NEW ENGLAND BOARD OF HIGHER EDUCATION Table of Contents About Us Message from the President...................................................................................................... 2 Message from the Chair ............................................................................................................ 3 NEBHE: Created for Leadership ............................................................................................... 4 Our History ................................................................................................................................ 5 Affordability + Savings Regional Student Program Tuition Break .................................................................................

    Legislative Update

    LEGISLATIVE UPDATE Welcome to the first Child Care Aware Legislative Update of the 2021 legislative session. This narrative update, along with our Bill Tracker, will be posted each Tuesday (reflecting activity through the previous Friday) on the Child Care Aware of Minnesota website. Each week we will provide a brief overview of bills that have been introduced, action that has been taken at the committee level or on the floor, and any other pertinent news related to early care and education and school-age care issues. If you have additions to recommend to the bill tracker, please contact Ann McCully. OVERVIEW The Legislature convened on Tuesday, January 5 and is off to a quick start. There is no question that the state’s response to the impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic is the primary issue facing legislators as they begin this session. This also a budget year to set the state’s budget for July 1, 2021 through June 30, 2023, and while the economic picture has improved since the initial budget forecast last spring, there is still a projected budget deficit in the coming years, leading to some tough decisions ahead. More information about the budget projections can be found on the State Office of Management and Budget website. COMMITTEE STRUCTURE A new, two-year legislative session brings new members, new committees, and new committee assignments. While early care and education issues may show up in many places during the process, below are a few of the key committees that we will be watching. We encourage you to follow them as well! To find out about committee upcoming committee hearings and topics, visit the Minnesota State Legislature combined calendar page.

    May 10, 2021 Honorable Senator Joshua Miller Chair, Senate

    May 10, 2021 Honorable Senator Joshua Miller Chair, Senate Committee on Health & Human Services Rhode Island State Capitol Providence, RI RE: Senate Bill 859 Dear Chair Joshua Miller, On behalf of the 226,000 adults living in Rhode Island with doctor-diagnosed arthritis, the Arthritis Foundation urges reform regarding accumulator adjustment programs. Accumulator adjustment programs prevent any co-payment assistance that may be available for high cost specialty drugs from counting towards a patient’s deductible or maximum out-of-pocket expenses. Many pharmaceutical manufacturers offer co-pay cards that help cover a patient’s portion of drug costs. Traditionally, pharmacy benefit managers have allowed these co-payment card payments to count toward the deductible required by a patient’s health insurance plan. With an accumulator adjustment program, patients are still allowed to apply the co-payment card benefits to pay for their medications up to the full limit of the cards, but when that limit is met, the patient is required to pay their full deductible before cost-sharing protections kick in. Currently, the state of Rhode Island does not have a law to ensure that health insurers count co- payment assistance towards a patient’s cost-sharing requirements. However, we appreciate your co-sponsorship of legislation (SB 859), alongside Senator Hanna Gallo, Senator Mike McCaffrey, Senator Frank Ciccone, and Senator Maryellen Goodwin, to protect patients against accumulator adjustment programs. Legislation is necessary on this issue as patients are often unaware they are enrolled in one of these programs until they go to the pharmacy counter and realize they must pay the full cost of their medication, which can lead them to abandon or delay their prescription.

    Introduction Lobbying and Advocacy

    Introduction This Legislative Handbook is designed to provide guidance and assistance to representatives of the New Jersey Association of Mental Health and Addiction Agencies, Inc. (NJAMHAA) member organizations who participate in legislative activities. Specifically, the Legislative Handbook presents the Association’s legislative policy and procedures, simplifies the complexities of the legislative process, and provides an orientation to grassroots lobbying for all members. On behalf of its members, NJAMHAA meets with legislators, policy makers and business leaders in order to influence legislative, regulatory and funding decisions in ways that have the most positive outcome on its members. Through increased visibility and a stronger presence, NJAMHAA ensures that members’ concerns are expressed and that their interests are represented. This allows members the peace of mind of knowing that legislative or regulatory changes that are made will occur with their views expressed. NJAMHAA is committed to facilitating meaningful exchange both within the Association and with other industry stakeholders to achieve mutual advocacy. While NJAMHAA aggressively lobbies state and federal legislators on behalf of its members, these lawmakers need to hear from you, their local constituents, those who elect them. The louder and stronger the voice, the more impact that it has on all who hear it. Please use and refer back to this valuable resource to familiarize yourself with legislative advocacy procedures and to contact key legislators to collectively join other NJAMHAA members in advancing the cause for an improved community behavioral health system. Lobbying and Advocacy Oftentimes, the words “lobbying” and “advocacy” are used interchangeably. The legal definition of lobbying usually involves attempting to influence legislation.
