Join us for the closing keynote address of the CBHL 2020 Un-Summit, where we will hear from Susan Cooper, Chief Integration Officer and Senior Vice President at Regional One Health in Memphis, Tennessee - Moving the Needle: Building Authentic Community Partnerships Together as ONE

The current pandemic has revealed even more deeply the health inequities that impact our communities, influenced by legacies of racial and economic segregation and disinvestment that fueled disparities in opportunity, health and well-being even before the COVID-19 crisis. The community development industry was originally founded during the civil rights movement, in response to racist “redlining”policies and discriminatory lending practices, and is responsible for investments in health clinics, affordable housing, permanent supportive housing, and more. What is the industry’s role in our current moment, and how can those working to provide for mental and behavioral health, better collaborate to address shared goals?

Part 2 of 'Community Development Through COVID-19' will be a facilitated, interactive discussion with panelists immediately following the webinar to further explore key themes, ask questions and to learn from one another. The topics will be flexible and tailored to the needs and requests of the attendees.

Join us for an informational discussion on 2021 CBHL Membership benefits, initiatives to be launched, and how you can be involved! Get all of your questions answered here about CBHL Membership.

A new year. A new administration. A behavioral health pandemic within a lingering COVID pandemic. Struggling communities. A renewed sense of urgency.

Whether dealing with COVID-19, wildfires, storms, or other disasters, life as we know it has been disrupted in many ways over the past year. With recovery efforts underway, including $4 billion recently allocated through the American Rescue Plan Act to address mental health challenges, suicide, and substance misuse, states and local communities have an opportunity to set the course for healthier and more equitable development in the wake of COVID-19.
