SUMMARY:Core Competencies in Peer Crisis Support: Values\, Practices and Skills
DESCRIPTION:Offered in partnership with the New York Association for Psychiatric Rehabilitation (NYAPRS) and Humannovations.  This webinar is a follow up to Intensity\, Lived Experience\, and Crisis: Activating Peer Support for a Transformed Mental Health Crisis Response System\, held on December 15\, 2021. \n\n\n\nLived experience of crisis and peer support can be incredibly valuable when people are experiencing ‘crisis-level’ emotions such as suicidal intensity. Dispensing with stigmatizing and dehumanizing language related to these experiences is a crucial first step\, altering clinical and law enforcement practices that feel more like punishment than care is also crucial. Peer specialists and peer empowerment values need to be effectively integrated as supports in intense situations as well. But structural resistance\, risk aversion and stigma have prevented anything like widespread involvement of people with lived experience in crisis or suicide prevention programming. \n\n\n\nGiven that the peer empowerment model developed in reaction\, at least to some degree\, to coercion and dehumanizing  experiences associate with interventions when people were at their worst moments\, how can the value of shared experience and peer support work in a new system of crisis care\, such as envisioned through the 988 transformation? \n\n\n\nThe key to successful integration of “peer crisis support” is a set of core practices and skills that provide people with lived experience with distinctive competencies for supporting peers in these moments and settings\, and the opportunity and confidence to employ them. Ie the practical transformation of lived experience into lived expertise for crisis support. \n\n\n\nIn this session we will present a comprehensive approach to bridging peer support values and practices to support in crisis services and settings\, including core skills for encountering threat of violence and suicidal intensity. The presenters will outline the details of one model of advanced ‘peer crisis support’ training (Growing Through) and provide discussion on the integration of these practices from the point of view of both public mental health and suicide prevention fields. \n\n\n\nParticipants will learn: \n\n\n\nAn approach to bridging peer support values and practices for ‘encountering intensity’ with peers.Trauma-informed reframes of clinical terminology for humanizing the experience of crisis and strugglesA set of peer crisis support core competencies\, including support for suicidal intensity\n\n\n\nWhen:  January 12\, 2021 at 10:00am PST / 11:00am MST / 12:00pm CST / 1:00pm EST \n\n\n\nHow:  Join us via Zoom!   \n\n\n\nPresented by:  Eduardo Vega\, M.

SUMMARY:Small Group Dialogue | Equity Grounded Leadership Competencies
DESCRIPTION:Time zone information: Focus group starts at 8:30am PST / 9:30am MST / 10:30am CST / 11:30am EST \n\n\n\nBehavioral health leadership\, historically and presently\, lacks diversity and fails to reflect the populations being served. With a new generation of leaders emerging and increasing attention on the traumatic impacts of racism in behavioral health\, systemic change efforts must be action-oriented\, grounded in equity\, and trauma-informed.  \n\n\n\nIn 2021\, the College for Behavioral Health Leadership (CBHL) hosted leadership conversations\, participated in key informant interviews\, and conducted surveys to understand experiences and perspectives related to equity-grounded leadership.  Based on this work\, we know leaders of color report a need for intentional focus on equity and anti-racism\, trusted leaders in positions of influence\, and mentorship to develop leaders who embody equity and represent the communities served.  \n\n\n\nAs we work for meaningful systems change and measurable action to transform behavioral health leadership\, we are seeking leaders to join us in conversations that will inform the core competencies for the CBHL Equity-Grounded Leadership Fellow Program.  The innovative\, new program is designed to shift the focus of cross-sector behavioral health leaders to equity and anti-racism as the foundation for systems transformation.
