Opposition to CACREP Requirement
 

 

Dear Virginia-

It really saddens me to know that VA will potentially move to a CACREP only state.  This will harm many individuals who seek mental health and especially our veterans.

I am in a unique situation because I am a Marriage and Family Therapy degree holder who is licensed as a LPC/LCPC (I did the extra work to obtain my LPC because it was important to me).  This will not only hurt service delivery to our US citizens, but it will hurt many experienced mental health providers. 

Please reconsider for this will harm many lives in a negative manner. 

V/R,

Rodrick Williams
