I strongly oppose the CACREP only legislation that will drastically limit mental health resources for people who reside in Virginia. This legislation is dangerous. CACREP is not the only accreditation body that has high training standards. Other accrediting bodies, e.g., MPCAC, have just as stringent, and in some ways stronger, more inclusive training requirements. Please do not pass this legislation. It will harm the field and support a divisive process of accreditation.
