SUMMARY:Webinar with Dr. Tom Insel | Healing: Our Path from Mental Illness to Mental Health
DESCRIPTION:Offered in partnership with the International Initiative for Mental Health Leadership. This webinar is open to all.   \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe fruit of a lifetime of expertise and a global quest for answers\, Healing: Our Path from Mental Illness to Mental Health is a hopeful\, actionable account and achievable vision for us all in this time of mental health crisis. \n\n\n\nDr. Insel\, former Director of the National Institute of Mental Health\, left his position atop the mental health research world to investigate all that was broken—and what a better path to mental health might look like. He found that we do have approaches that work\, both in the U.S. and globally. Mental illnesses are medical problems\, but he discovers that the cures for the crisis are not just medical\, but social. This path to healing\, built upon what he calls the three Ps (people\, place\, and purpose)\, is more straightforward than we might imagine. Dr. Insel offers a comprehensive plan for our failing system and for families trying to discern the way forward. \n\n\n\nPlease join Dr. Tom Insel to discuss his new book! \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhen:  June 8 at 12:00pm PDT / 1:00pm MDT / 2:00pm CDT / 3:00pm EDT \n\n\n\nPresented by:   \n\n\n\nDr. Thomas Insel | Author: Healing: Our Path from Mental Illness to Mental Health \n\n\n\nThis event is free and open to all! \n\n\n\n\nRegister Here!\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSpeaker Information\n\n\n\n\nDr. Thomas Insel \n\n\n\nTom lnsel\, M.D.\, a psychiatrist and neuroscientist\, has been a national leader in mental health research\, policy\, and technology.

SUMMARY:Webinar | Soteria New York: Bringing an Innovative Approach to Psychiatric Crisis to New York
DESCRIPTION:Offered in partnership with New York Association of Psychiatric Rehabilitation Services (NYAPRS) and Community Access. This webinar is open to all.   \n\n\n\nThis webinar will discuss the history and future of the Soteria model\, an evidence-based alternative to acute hospitalization for persons experiencing psychiatric crises. Soteria provides intensive support in a communal residential setting with emphasis on humane interactions and understanding.  \n\n\n\nReplications of the Soteria model have been few and far between since the remarkable success of the original Soteria experiment\, spearheaded by Loren Mosher and Alma Menn in the 1970s. Recently\, a wide-ranging renewal of the Soteria model has taken place in Israel with very positive outcomes.  \n\n\n\nThe need for alternatives to police intervention and hospitalization for crisis stabilization\, has led to a development of short term residential facilities in many US states. Following the success of the Parachute Project\, New York State has been a pioneer in promoting the establishment of such residential alternatives with an eye on further expansion. This discussion will consider how the Soteria model would be uniquely impactful in New York State. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhen:  June 9 at 10:00am PDT / 11:00am MDT / 12:00pm CDT / 1:00pm EDT \n\n\n\nSpeakers:   \n\n\n\nPesach Lichtenberg | Founder\, Soteria Isreal; Psychiatrist based in Jerusalem  \n\n\n\nVoyce Hendrix | Director\, Soteria San Jose (1976-78); Social Worker\, St. Paul\, MN \n\n\n\nYana Jacobs | Counselor\, Soteria San Jose; Social Worker\, Santa Cruz\, CA \n\n\n\nDaniel Bergner | Contributing Writer\, New York Times; Author of Upcoming Book – The Mind and the Moon – My Brother\, the Science of Our Brains and the Search for Our Psyches \n\n\n\nElan Cohen | Clinical Psychology Doctoral Candidate and Former Peer Specialist with the Parachute Program \n\n\n\nPeter Stastny | Psychiatric Consultant; Co-Founder of International Network Towards Alternatives and Rights-Based Supports \n\n\n\nThis event is free and open to all! \n\n\n\n\nRegister Here!

SUMMARY:Virtual Panel | Innovations in Youth Mental Health: Part 1
DESCRIPTION:Offered in partnership with the International Initiative for Mental Health Leadership. This webinar is open to all. \n\n\n\nYouth mental health has been identified as a top behavioral health priority in our communities.  Join this panel discussion to learn more about innovative programs and resources offered across the North American Region to support the mental health of our youth\, and how you can replicate in your own community.  \n\n\n\n\nReading & Rhythm Changes Lives \n\n\n\nSteven Angel will present an overview of the underlying causes for why students struggle with reading and how it affects their mental health.

This presentation will review related stressors and gaps that impact Latino youth and families. Special considerations for Hispanic and Latino youth mental health will be discussed. \n\n\n\n\nPlease join the panelists to learn more about their innovative work to support youth mental health!  \n\n\n\nPart 2 of the virtual panel will be held on June 22!
