Direct Care Provider Group Session

Please join us for an active, group discussion to inform the 2018 Adult Behavioral Health Community Needs Assessment.

We need your voice to understand the assets and challenges facing those with mental health and substance use concerns!

SESSION DATE AND LOCATION:

We hope for your attendance at a group session on Thursday, June 28th from 2:30-4:00pm, located at Behavioral Health Response (12647 Olive Blvd., Suite 200, St. Louis, MO 63141). RSVP required.

WHO CAN PARTICIPATE?

Providers of services who regularly work face-to-face or by phone with adults who have behavioral health (mental health or substance use) concerns or their families/supports. Providers may include those who deliver clinical services in outpatient or hospital settings or others who are regularly working with those with beahvioral health concerns (e.g. law enforcement/criminal justice workers). We ask that providers either work within the City of St. Louis or with residents of the City.

WHAT IS THE PURPOSE OF THE SESSION?

BHN has partnered with St. Louis Mental Health Board to implement a 2018 community needs assessment of adult behavioral health (mental health & substance use) for St. Louis City. Through active, participatory group discussion with various members of the community, we hope to better understand community resources and strengths as well as challenges, gaps and barriers to meeting behavioral health needs.

You input will help inform real change to benefit adults and families in area impacted by behavioral health concerns and to guide investments of community resources for behavioral health.

HOW CAN I ATTEND?

We ask that you register here, as space is limited. Please feel free to forward this invitation on to any colleague who may focus more directly on the behavioral health needs of adults within St. Louis City.
