Using CARES Act Funding to Improve Population Mental Health

Nov 18, 2020

Overview

With the CARES Act “use it or lose it” expiration date fast approaching, we share practical and efficient strategies for using your funding to broadly expand mental and behavioral health outreach in accordance with the criteria.
 
Specifically, we discuss:
 
  • How it is essential for behavioral health to work in conjunction with public health to improve overall mental well-being within our communities.
  • Why this need for collaboration is even more essential in the face of COVID 19 and the associated emotional distress; civil and social unrest; and health disparities experienced by socially disadvantaged populations.
  • How empowering communities with self-help prevention and intervention resources can alleviate mental health issues “upstream” before they escalate into co-morbid acute care episodes.
