National Association of Counties (NACo): Building a Behavioral Health Continuum of Care – The Role of Rural Leaders and Behavioral Health Directors

The National Association of Counties (NACo) is hosting a webinar on Building a Behavioral Health Continuum of Care: The Role of Rural Leaders and Behavioral Health Directors on Tuesday, August 6^th, from 2:00 PM to 3:00 PM.

Counties play a critical role in supporting community members living with behavioral health conditions or experiencing a behavioral health crisis. To build an effective and robust behavioral health system, counties need strong leadership to promote dialogue in the community and implement programs and policies that benefit all residents. This webinar will highlight two local leadership roles: leaders in rural and frontier communities and behavioral health (BH) directors. Attendees will engage in a panel discussion with representatives of these roles to learn about how rural and frontier leaders and BH directors can identify solutions and cultivate support for sustainable, accessible behavioral health care. This webinar is hosted by the National Association of Counties (NACo) in partnership with the National Association of County Behavioral Health and Development Disability Directors (NACBHDD). It is the second in a series of three webinars that will spotlight specific kinds of local leaders and how they can leverage their unique roles to advance behavioral health care.
