NYSHA

The New York State Hamaspik Association is a membership association of human-services providers in 25 counties. It serves as a member cost-sharing consortium for such programs as: retreats for parents, providers and employees; government-mandated staff training sessions; public relations; governmental advocacy; and the 60,000-reader Hamaspik Gazette. It is also the parent organization of Tri-County Care.

Likewise, NYSHA operates Hamaspik Theragen: an Article 16 clinic whose seven satellite branches serve individuals with I/DD, in the five boroughs of New York City, as well as in Orange, Rockland and Westchester Counties. Tri-County Medical, P.C., offshoot of Hamaspik Theragen, is also operated by NYSHA—filling a care gap with critical off-site medical and therapy services in private residences, Family Care homes, group homes, day programs, and other sites.
