CBHL Member Advocacy Workgroup | Kick-off Meeting
Over the past couple of months, we’ve hosted a few member leadership conversations organized around - and/or leading to - discussions around the formation of an advocacy workgroup.
Given President Biden’s Strategy announced this year to address the national behavioral health crisis, we have an important opportunity - and obligation - to not only advocate for the passage of the budget, but to advocate for a wise strategy behind the funding.
At a conversation held last month, a set of strategic directions - or guiding principles - were reviewed along with a process to apply these strategic directions to components of the strategy.
Numerous members requested and/or offered their participation in an advocacy workgroup. In this first meeting of the advocacy workgroup, we will co-develop a process, objectives, and proposed outcomes for working together.
