Mental Health Awareness Training Grant, McCall Foundation, Inc. - McCall Center for Behavioral Health serves a community with an identified deficit of mental health resources. This deficit further compounds the challenges faced and increases the need for accessing mental health resources by our populations of focus - seniors, populations of color, and law enforcement. Utilizing our position as a collaborative leader in the community and our expertise in providing quality mental health treatment, McCall will lead the training and education of service providers, the general public, and members of our populations of focus to increase the availability and accessibility of mental health resources in the region. By focusing on Training, Education, Network Building, Data Collection, and Sustainability, our approach will ensure broad and effective integration of mental health awareness training skills and education where they are needed most. McCall is positioned and has the ability to train, refer, and provide high quality mental health treatment to residents across the region, ensuring that we can be a “one-stop-shop” for mental health services. However, our collaborative approach will promote systemic changes within partnering service providers across the region that will both further the integration of these necessary skills and improve the overall sustainability of mental health resources well beyond the grant period.
