>>Congress Passes Bill to Include Counselors in VA Programs
>>
>>
>>
>>Inclusion of mental health counselors as providers at the Department of
>>Veterans' Affairs (VA), a top policy goal for the American Counseling
>>Association (ACA) and the American Mental Health Counselors Association
>>(AMHCA), passed both the U.S. House and Senate during the waning hours
>>of the 109th Congress. The provision, included in S. 3421, the Veterans
>>Benefits, Healthcare, and Information Act, opens up the VA health care
>>system to mental health counselors, increasing access to care for
>>veterans.  S. 3421 now goes to President Bush to be signed into law.
>>
>>
>>
>>The bill, which passed the House by voice vote and the Senate under
>>unanimous consent, includes the ACA and AMHCA provision to add mental
>>health counselors to the list of appointed positions within the Veterans
>>Healthcare Administration (VHA).  The provision would also delineate the
>>qualifications mental health counselors would need to be appointed to a
>>position in the VHA.
>>
>>
>>
>>Currently, the VA cannot hire mental health counselors at the same pay
>>grade as clinical social workers, nor can mental health counselors apply
>>for supervisory positions open to clinical social workers and others.
>>Partially as a result, the VA is the largest employer of social workers
>>in the United States, and the VA employs very few mental health
>>counselors on a full-time basis.
>>
>>
>>
>>The ACA and AMHCA supported provision will allow mental health
>>counselors to be eligible for better paying jobs with a greater
>>potential for promotion at the VA. Currently, licensed mental health
>>counselors do not have a federal Office of Personnel Management (OPM)
>>General Schedule (GS) occupational classification, which is necessary
>>for a counselor to be employed by the U.S. Government. With enactment of
>>the provision, OPM will be required to create an occupational
>>classification for mental health counselors.
>>
>>
>>
>>Among S. 3421's other provisions, is authorization of an additional $180
>>million for the provision of readjustment counseling and related mental
>>health services provided at VA Vet Centers.  The bill also adds funding
>>to increase the number of clinicians, including mental health
>>counselors, treating post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and
>>authorizes an additional $2 million for VA community based outpatient
>>clinics to support the provision of mental health services.  Finally,
>>the bill expands access to bereavement counseling for immediate family
>>members as a service to be offered at Vet Centers when a servicemember
>>dies on active duty.
>>
>>
>>
>>The counselor language that was included in S. 3421 was taken from S.
>>1182, a bill passed by the Senate in December of 2005.  ACA and AMHCA
>>worked with two of its members, Carla Hattan, president of the Kansas
>>Mental Health Counselors Association (KMHCA) and Bill Davis, a mental
>>health counselor in the state, to get comparable counselor legislation
>>introduced in the House.  In May 2006, ACA and AMHCA achieved this goal
>>when Rep. Jerry Moran (R-KS) and Rep. Michael Michaud (D-ME) introduced
>>the "Veterans Mental Health Care Access Improvement Act of 2006" (H.R.
>>5396).  Movement on the legislation seemed to have stalled in the Fall
>>of 2006, until the House's action on the final legislative day of the
>>109th Congress.
>>
>>
>>
>>ACA and AMHCA would like to thank the Chairman (Sen. Larry Craig (R-ID))
>>and Ranking Member (Sen. Daniel Akaka (D-HI)) of the Senate VA Committee
>>as well as Reps. Moran and Michaud from the House VA Committee for
>>ensuring that the LPC provision was included in the final version of the
>>bill.  Finally, ACA and AMHCA would like to thank each of its members
>>who advocated for passage of this legislation.  The result shows that
>>grassroots advocacy, coupled with cooperation from state branches and
>>the efforts of federal lobbyists, can achieve legislative victories for
>>the counseling profession.
>>
