HELPING CONSUMERS PARTICIPATE IN THE TRANSFORMATION TO A RECOVERY-BASED SYSTEM - The National Empowerment Center (NEC) will help mental health consumers acquire the knowledge, skills & confidence to participate in the transformation to a dynamic, effective, & consumer-driven mental health system focused on recovery & community integration. It will strengthen statewide consumer networks & help them to engage in service delivery & support, training, evaluation, & planning & policy formation activities in states. NEC will provide in-depth, & ongoing consultation to two states that have nonexistant or underserved statewide consumer-run organizations. They will help establish & strenghten consumer-run organizations & networks by developing business & management skills training & resources based on its manual, Voices of Transformation. NEC will build leadership skills through its training program, Finding Our Voice, to enhance consumer participation in recovery transformation initiatives at all levels. NEC will develop materials & pilot training for peers to become group facilitators of peer-run support and wellness groups. It will develop a set of materials to promote consumer involvement in the planning & provision of peer support in disaster response, called 'From Relief to Recovery.' NEC will develop training resources to teach consumer-run approaches for evaluation of consumer operated & traditional service programs. NEC will enhance the shift to recovery by creating an updated compilation of exemplary consumer-run programs in each of the four fundamental areas of transformation: services & supports, training, evaluation & policy.
