Monday, April 15, 2024
11:45 AM – 12:15 PM CT
Location: Exhibit Hall, Hall 3, Level 1, ACCC
The mental health needs of people who live in rural areas are not very different from people in urban areas. The challenge is to make crisis services accessible. By creating a continuum of crisis services and partnering with other community services you can fill gaps and help consumers access the mental health services they need. A no wrong door approach is essential, the last thing our consumers need to hear is "we can't help you." Making the most of the resources you have available can make a difference to those we serve in our rural communities.

Learning Objectives:

  • Participants will be able to identify 3 essential pieces of the crisis continuum..
  • Identify 3 funding mechanisms for crisis teams.
  • Participants will be able to identify crucial community partnerships for success.
