Overcoming Arizona’s Behavioral Health Crisis: Pathways to Wellness
Are you creating a healthier, happier, connected, and flourishing Arizona?
Mental health concerns have skyrocketed since the onset of Covid and its aftermath. More Arizonans are dealing with depression, anxiety, stress, burnout, financial worries, suicidal thoughts, problem relationships, and substance abuse. Arizonans are struggling to get help. Traditional approaches aren’t working. The need for innovation and collaborative action couldn’t be more evident.
The Healthy Communities and Wellness Alliance are pleased to host this webinar highlighting what leading organizations are doing to meet these challenges. Please register to reserve a spot (free) to get insights on innovative solutions in three critical areas.
1. Overcoming behavioral health workforce shortages.
2. Integrating social determinants of health into community healthcare.
3. Leveraging digital and emerging technologies in managing healthcare.
If you are a practitioner, administrator, or policymaker in the mental health and wellness field, this is an excellent opportunity to share ideas, projects, and solutions.
