PEF REGION 6 MEMBERS WE NEED YOU!
Health care workers from the New York State Public Employees Federation (PEF), and the Civil Service Employees Association (CSEA) will rally in Utica, Friday, April 27 to protest plans to eliminate long term adult inpatient services for the mentally ill in Oneida County as the state moves forward with the closure of the adult inpatient wards at MVPC Center.
The state Office of Mental Health plans to transfer some patients to Hutchings Psychiatric Center in Syracuse, abandoning others, and resulting in more than 140 lost jobs.
The rally will take place in front of the Utica State Office Building, 207 Genesee Street at 12 noon, Friday, April 27.
State Sen. Joseph Griffo and Assembly Member Anthony Brindisi plan to attend.
PEF represents approximately 54,000 professional, scientific and technical employees of New York State and other public and private employees. For more information, call the Utica PEF office at 1-800-724-5005.
