• CBHL Member Roundtable: The Role of Families and Relationships 

    Online Only , United States

    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 as critical to avoiding 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.

  • CBHL Member Roundtable:  Deconstructing Non-Compliance and Exploring a Counterargument to Forced Treatment

    Online Only , United States

    From New York to California, policies are being implemented which lead to the increased use of forced treatment orders, reverting to policies of years past.  Attempts to address community challenges around homelessness, poverty, and crime are often conflated with mental health challenges and regarded as public safety versus public health issues.  This leads to strategies resulting in involuntary hospitalizations and incarcerations.  There are numerous research findings demonstrating the damaging, discriminating, and inequitable effects of forced treatment, so why are policymakers reverting to these policies?

    Join the dialogue on February 23 at 9am PT / 10am MT / 11am CT / 12pm ET to de-construct non-compliance and explore a counterargument to forced treatment.

  • Follow-up Dialogue | Self-Assessment for Modification of Anti-Racism Tool (SMART)

    Online Only , United States

    On July 19, 2022, a webinar was held to introduce participants to the Self-Assessment for Modification of Anti-Racism Tool (SMART), an innovative self-directed quality improvement tool developed by the American Association for Community Psychiatry (AACP) to assist community mental health organizations in addressing structural racism. The presenters described the process by which SMART was developed, including its grounding in input from community mental health providers and existing health inequity frameworks. The domains and items of SMART as well as its application process were outlined. Presenters also provided lessons from on-the-ground applications of SMART in diverse community mental health settings.

Lessons learned will be shared, and questions answered. Join us for an important opportunity to learn from one another!
