MPA Legislative Advocacy

MPA works with our legislative committee, lobbyist and members to monitor and respond to proposals and bills as they became available.  Through the filter of MPA’s legislative committee policies and agenda - developed ultimately from the MPA mission statement - pieces of legislation affecting insurance and reimbursement, scope of practice, children, schools, forensic services, public mental health, and other areas, legislation is scrutinized for its effect on practice and the equitable access to mental health care for the citizens of Maryland. 

During the 90-day MD legislative session, information on legislation that is of particular interest to Maryland psychologists is available in the members section of the website. Information and MPA's position on bills from the past session are also available.

An important goal of Annapolis Day is to foster engagement with legislators. Because legislators are often highly motivated to meet with their constituents, we ask that each attendant reach out to their legislators to inform them that you will be in attendance.
