Prevention Services Rule - Public Comment Email Examples/Language

OPPA is providing sample language, developed by Ohio prevention leaders, for members to utilize in crafting their public comment in opposition to the OhioMHAS proposal to change the Prevention Services Rule, removing provider certification.

Each "Sample Email Language" focuses on a different priority in response to the proposed change. Members can pull language from the various samples or build a case based on a specific argument. We strongly encourage you to personalize your public comment as much as possible, even if you use some of the sample language provided below.
