View Award Description

Building Community Networks to Facilitate MH Treatment & Recovery - Through the "Building Community Networks to Facilitate Mental Health Treatment and Recovery" project, The National Empowerment Center (NEC) will help mental health (MH) consumers develop the community services and supports needed in order to facilitate recovery and community integration. NEC will address gaps in crisis response services and assist in bringing states into compliance with the ADA and Olmstead through promoting consumer involvement in service delivery and policy formation. Building on its 23-year history of engaging consumers to help achieve the promise of the ADA and Olmstead, NEC will accomplish these goals by: 1) Promoting consumer participation in programs, policy development and evaluation; 2) Developing consumer networks; and 3) Providing technical assistance (TA) to enhance the business capacity of those networks. NEC will provide TA on a national level in one of the following subject matter areas: crisis response services or rights protection. NEC will identify the most effective consumer directed approaches and partner with those programs to disseminate practical guidance to consumers for replicating these programs and services in their states. NEC will provide TA to increase the number of consumers providing community-based, Medicaid-reimbursable services such as crisis service providers, peer advocates, and a variety of other roles. NEC will provide TA to assigned regions in the country to assist with the development of consumer-run organizations and MH system transformation. Additional emphasis will be placed on states that have nonexistent or underdeveloped statewide consumer run organizations. Using the Asset-Based Community Development approach, NEC will build on existing strengths to guide consumer leaders through the process of starting their own statewide networks and becoming effective agents of change through leadership development program.
