System of Care Support Grantee Meeting

 

Dates: May 22-23, 2017

​

Location: Rockville, MD

​

Description: This 2-day meeting is open to communities, states, tribes and territories with cooperative agreements awarded under the Comprehensive Community Mental Health Services for Children and their Families Program (also known as the Children's Mental Health Initiative or CMHI). It is designed for grantees to invite state or local agency partners (e.g., Medicaid, child welfare, juvenile justice, education), staff, and stakeholders, such as family members, youth, providers, legislators, and judges, who are less familiar with system of care practices, principles, essential components and the strategic framework necessary for designing, implementing, sustaining, and expanding effective systems of care. The meeting is intended for those who are critical to the development and expansion of systems of care at state and local levels, who do not have a strong knowledge base about systems of care and would benefit from a 2-day intensive system of care immersion. This SAMHSA sponsored learning opportunity count towards the annual grantee training requirement.
