For many years he also taught systems thinking at the UO. Through this work Bob realized that the mental health and psychosocial impacts of the climate crisis were a very significant but largely unaddressed problem. This led him in 2013 to organize the ITRC. Due to his many years of work\, in 2015 Bob was named one the world’s “50 Most Talented Social Innovators” by the World CRS Congress. Bob is the author of a number of books on the interface between individual\, group\, community\, and social resilience and ecological regeneration.

SUMMARY:Webinar | Behavioral Health in Ohio: Improving Data\, Moving Toward Racial & Ethnic Equity
DESCRIPTION:Register\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHow can data be more effectively used to advance racial and ethnic equity in behavioral health care?  \n\n\n\nSince early 2022\, a multi-organizational collaborative team with expertise in advocacy\, policy\, research\, and organizational transformation have worked together to improve behavioral health for Ohio’s marginalized racial and ethnic populations. Their work products include a series of research reports analyzing the opportunities and recommendations for change. To date\, the collaborative has produced two reports\, the first presenting the big picture around racial and ethnic equity and behavioral health as an introduction to the topic; the second report focuses on the workforce\, featuring a breakdown of the racial and ethnic composition of Ohio’s behavioral health providers and recommendations for improvement in data collection\, policy\, diversity in education\, and more. Two final reports are in-process and will focus on treatment and funding. \n\n\n\nJoin us to learn how you might replicate this in your own communities\, including rationale for use of data to advance racial and ethnic equity\, how to create a team structure and work processes to gather and analyze data\, and the ways in which the findings are already making an impact in Ohio. \n\n\n\nThis event is open to all! \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhen: June 21 at 12:00pm PT / 1:00pm MT / 2:00pm CT / 3:00pm ET \n\n\n\nPresenters:  \n\n\n\nDr. Cory E.

They’ll be joined by a researcher who will describe outcomes\, implementation facilitators and barriers\, and best practice in self-direction across the country.  Join us for a 90-minute session to engage with the panelists in dialogue. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhen:  May 31 at 10:00am PST / 11:00am MST / 12:00pm CT / 1:00pm ET  \n\n\n\n(90 minutes) \n\n\n\n\nRegister Here\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSpeaker Information\n\n\n\n\nBorn with cerebral palsy\, Tim Jin advocates for the rights of anyone with a speech-related disability to have access to the communication tools and support they need.

SUMMARY:Webinar | Transformational Systems Change and Impact through Data
DESCRIPTION:Do you feel like there’s something essential that’s being missed in your data and reporting projects?  Does it seem like you’re always stuck spinning your wheels\, or that you end up focused on details and missing the big picture?As a leader\, how can you help your organization move beyond using data for operations\, productivity\, and finance projects\, and start using data to fuel transformational change?In this webinar\, we’ll share the stages of development that organizations experience on the way to data-informed decision-making\, and how to help your team overcome the obstacles at each crossroads.  Improving your effectiveness with operational data is important\, and it’s easy to get stuck responding to every new external reporting requirement and never get around to looking at data that really matters.We also know that an organization can be really good at operational\, financial\, and compliance data and still miss the big picture.  Data processes that are well-designed to deliver required reports or monitor productivity aren’t going to naturally yield transformational data.Data that will drive systemic change\, requires something different\, including: \n\n\n\n\nBold prioritization\, time that is set aside for deep thinking\, and being clear about what isn’t going to get done.\n\n\n\nExtending your trauma-informed lens to your data analysis conversations\, in how you talk about data and how you roll out changes.\n\n\n\nRecognizing emotions around imperfection\, noticing and managing cognitive dissonance\, and dealing with avoidance.\n\n\n\nBringing stakeholders to the table with opportunities for meaningful input and creativity\, especially people who don’t think of themselves as ‘data people’.\n\n\n\n\nThe time for these changes is now – if you’re on a quest to transform our system\, we hope you’ll join us to think about how data could support you on that mission!  \n\n\n\nThis event is open to all! \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhen: April 5 at 10:00am PT / 11:00am MT / 12:00pm CT / 1:00pm ET \n\n\n\nPresenter:  \n\n\n\nGinger Bandeen\, LCSW | Founder & CEO\, Mission Driven Data \n\n\n\n\nRegister Here!\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPresenter Information\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nGinger Bandeen\, LCSW  \n\n\n\nGinger founded Mission Driven Data after a 15-year career in clinical social work\, quality improvement\, advocacy\, and program development in the community behavioral health field.  Ginger is passionate about making data analysis accessible for clinicians – helping people who would say they aren’t “data people” discover joy and excitement in the data analysis process.   \n\n\n\nGinger is committed to combining her understanding of data with her clinical perspective to optimize data and information systems in community agencies\, with the end goal of supporting better outcomes and system transformation.

SUMMARY:CBHL Member Roundtable: The Role of Families and Relationships 
DESCRIPTION:At our February Member Roundtable\, Deconstructing Non-Compliance and Exploring a Counterargument to Forced Treatment\, the role of families and/or close relationships was raised in the context of conversation related to the conflation of public health with public safety issues. The deep divide around these important issues seem to preempt potential collaboration that could strengthen wanted and needed change. For our March Roundtable\, we are going to continue this thread of conversation and further explore: \n\n\n\n\nAreas of alignment where people or places have concerns about mental health or public safety\n\n\n\nOpportunities to bridge the gap\n\n\n\nThe idea that investing in families and relationships throughout recovery is essential to keeping people out of forced situations\n\n\n\n\nFor this Roundtable\, we will not have dedicated panelists\, rather\, will seek the expertise of Roundtable participants to frame the dialogue.  We look forward to a robust conversation. \n\n\n\n**If you missed the February Roundtable – Deconstructing Non-Compliance and Exploring a Counterargument to Forced Treatment we encourage you to view the summary. \n\n\n\nThis Roundtable is for CBHL Members! \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhen:  March 23 at 10:00am PST / 11:00am MST / 12:00pm CT / 1:00pm ET \n\n\n\n\nRegister Here
