On March 17, join us for a conversation with Rosa M. Thomas, MA, LLP, a senior health care executive; Alexandra Plante, Senior Advisor of Substance Use at the National Council for Mental Wellbeing; and Zac Imel, Professor at the University of Utah and Chief Science Officer at Lyssn.io.
Together, they will share practical insights and real-world examples of how technology is reshaping behavioral health service delivery and workforce development.
This Jam session, Part 3 of our Extending the Behavioral Health Workforce series will:
- Explore how digital modernization efforts can reduce administrative burden, expand access to skill‑building opportunities and support consistent, person‑centered care across varied behavioral health settings.
- Examine how emerging technologies can extend the behavioral health workforce and improve care delivery.
- Discuss ethical, regulatory and fairness considerations in implementing technology‑enabled workflows, including the importance of human oversight.
The Workforce Solutions Jam is a monthly webinar to build national momentum and encourage collaboration. It is hosted as a partnership between the National Council for Mental Wellbeing, Health Management Associates and The College for Behavioral Health Leadership.
