<strong>NY ALFA’s 8th Annual Advocacy Day</strong> was held on June 2nd and 3rd.  NY ALFA Member Advocates met with approximately 50 legislators and key  staff during Advocacy Day.  We were extremely successful in conveying our  messages regarding the importance of supporting the Department’s efforts to streamline and consolidate both the licensure process as well as the various regulatory requirements governing assisted living to bring greater consistency and higher quality care for New York’s seniors.  Our efforts also resulted in the Senate passing a number of measures aimed at strengthening protections for seniors against various form of abuse and exploitation.
