CBHL Member Networking Conversation | Profiles in Behavioral Health Leadership

Meet Dr. Ron Manderscheid

Join us for a new series in our monthly networking conversations, called “Profiles in Behavioral Health Leadership.”   This series is designed to highlight inspirational leaders who are eager to share their personal leadership journey and the things that make them tick. You’ll gain valuable insight into the lessons they’ve learned, their proudest achievements, and how they maintain the passion and drive to cultivate healing, wellness, and recovery through their work.

Ron Manderscheid, Ph.D., has a life-long commitment to social-justice, particularly racial, gender, and health equity. This is reflected through a career that spans national work with the Congress and Administration, federal agencies, NGOs, and university teaching.

He serves currently as Principal at Capstone Solutions Consulting Group and as Adjunct Professor at the Bloomberg School of Public Health, Johns Hopkins University, and the Suzanne Dworak-Peck School of Social Work, University of Southern California. Until recently, he was President/CEO, National Association of County Behavioral Health and Developmental Disability Directors and National Association for Rural Mental Health. Both organizations represent county and local authorities in the DC community. Concurrently, Dr. Manderscheid has served on the boards of the American Academy of Social Work and Social Welfare, the National Grand Challenge for Social Work Initiative, the Danya Institute, and the NASMHPD Research Institute. He also served until recently as the Co-Chair of the National Coalition for Whole Health.

Member networking conversations are designed to provide CBHL members with a unique opportunity to connect, exchange valuable insights, and collaborate with fellow leaders who are making a difference in their communities.  These sessions offer an informal platform for engaging discussions on leadership topics and challenges that are currently top of mind for our members.  

This time is for you!  We encourage you to join the conversation with your camera on if possible.  We look forward to seeing you.
