Passing on an upcoming webinar from NCAPPS:
NCAPPS JULY 6 WEBINAR The Three Legs of the Stool: A Framework for Person-Centered
Sign up for this webinar, share widely
July 6, 2023, from 3:00-4:30 pm ET
To register, visit https://us06web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_eeqynNR9SW-GztWBe_gfkg
“This webinar will showcase a framework for community mental health services developed by the Ashland County, Ohio Mental Health and Recovery Board. Using a three-legged stool model, the Mental Health and Recovery Board has operationalized
person-centered practices throughout the County service system. The primary principle of the framework is borrowed from the Hippocratic Oath: Do no harm. The three legs, or sets of values, are: 1) Recovery and Resiliency, 2) Trauma-Informed Care, and 3) Medication
Optimization. In this webinar hosted by the National Center on Advancing Person-Centered Practices and Systems (NCAPPS), a panel of current and past leadership and people with lived experience of community mental health services in Ashland County will tell
the story of how the framework’s principles and values have been operationalized. Panelists will provide information and inspiration for advocates, administrators, and service providers interested in how community mental health services can promote quality
of life and wellbeing at the local level.”
Pride Month might be almost over, but the issues faced at the intersection of disability and LGBTQ won’t be over. Check out:
The National Consumer Voice for Quality Long-Term Care (theconsumervoice.org) for information on “Progress and Challenges for LGBTQ+ Residents in Long-Term Care Facilities”
I hope everyone will stay safe and sane with fireworks if you choose to participate. Remember, many of the doctors and nurses normally in the Emergency Room will be on holiday too.
Our next network call will be Wednesday July 12th.
See you then, if not sooner elsewhere.
