CBHL Member Dialogue | The Workforce Emergency (20+ years leadership experience)
The behavioral health workforce emergency continues to be elevated among the highest priority concerns in conversations with members and other colleagues. As a corollary are concerns of the impact on behavioral health leadership, and capacity to undertake the major systems transformations necessary to ensure equity.
It is also apparent that the gaps, needs, and potential solutions vary by experience.
In order to more clearly understand the issue, your experiences, and potential solutions, we are hosting three, small group, CBHL member dialogues in early August to unpack the strengths and gaps in our current - and future - leadership capacity to undertake the major system transformations that are needed.
This will also be a great opportunity to meet some of your fellow CBHL colleagues and form new connections!
