| Collapse all
- Lisa supports high quality, affordable healthcare for all
- Lisa supports equal access to an education that prepares our children for the 21st century and beyond
- Lisa supports strategies & policies that work to protect our environment
Second, we also must make a good college education affordable. My own children's friends, many of whom were fortunate enough to go to college, are now unfortunately and literally drowning in debt. How can young people buy a house and a car if they are falling into the sink hole of student loan debt? We must also support and create new programs to fill the significant need for new members of the trades. Plumbers, carpenters, welders - these are not the jobs of the past - they are the vitally important economic change agents for the future.
Business Experience / Job Creation - I have increased the size of the mental health organization I lead by almost 10-fold since taking the helm in 2010. Today, my organization is the largest mental health agency in CNY / Southern Tier (~$15 million budget & 150 employees). I know how to create and keep jobs - vital in any economy.
Community / Public Service - I have served on the Board of many arts and education institutions. My commitment to our communities' non-profit sector is proven and longstanding - and I will be just as committed to this sector when I take my seat in Albany.
Health Sector Experience - Value-based payments, independent practice associations, working within the healthcare industry, experience working with insurance companies and fellow-providers all afford me the expertise to help solve the toughest healthcare problems facing our State.
