GCPI, in partnership with Mental Health America and Kaiser Permanente, hosted the third of four convenings focused on addressing the behavioral health challenges related to the child welfare system. The invitation-only event brought together healthcare professionals, policy experts, and practitioners from a wide range of backgrounds to identify, encourage, and facilitate innovative cross-sector clinical and non-clinical strategies to address the behavioral health needs of families who come into contact with the child welfare system. Attendees focused on developing a vision for a behavioral health strategy for families in contact with the child welfare system, the different resources that can be leveraged from existing programs and sectors, and came up with policy ideas.
