TCBHL – The College for Behavioral Health Leadership – IT’S NOT TOO LATE TO REGISTER! – Crisis Response: Peer Leadership to Develop Community Solutions – Wednesday
Crisis Response: Peer Leadership to Develop Community Solutions
June 30, 2021 @ 7:30 am – 9:00 am PST
Webinar Description: Mental health and substance use disorder crisis response and prevention are critical elements to helping people stabilize and enter a path to recovery and wellbeing. There are proven opportunities to improve outcomes in crisis settings via the use of peers, including reduced trauma, increased trust, and reductions in recidivism. In this webinar, panelists will share best practice examples of peer-led crisis response and prevention. Panelists will also discuss opportunities to engage and promote peers into leadership positions to develop community solutions to community behavioral health challenges.
Series Overview: At our 2020 Un-Summit – Partnering with Communities to Improve Health Outcomes – We learned from initiatives around the country whose collaborations led to real improvements in community relationships, resulting in better health outcomes. Building a foundation for authentic community partnerships to improve mental health and wellbeing requires establishing a leadership team who is representative of and trusted by the community.
Through a series of three webinars, CBHL – together with our partners – will explore the importance of engaging, elevating and promoting the voices of 1) black, indigenous and leaders of color representing the diversity of the community, 2) community members as resident leaders of their community, and 3) peer leaders representing the lived experience of the community.
