Fostering Collaborative Partnerships: Lessons from Primary and Behavioral Healthcare Associations

From 2018-2024, the Delta Center for a Thriving Safety Net invested in partnerships between state primary care associations (PCAs) and behavioral health state associations (BHSAs) to advance policy and practice change for a better integrated system of care.

On June 24, 2-3:15 p.m. ET, the National Association of Community Health Centers, the National Council for Mental Wellbeing and JSI will host a webinar showcasing best practices and lessons learned from the Delta Center’s initiative.

Grantees will join a panel discussion focusing on three of the themes identified in the Delta Center Collaboration Playbook, a forthcoming resource for health care entities that want to learn more about what goes into forging sustainable, effective partnerships:

• Build relationships with intention.
• Identify opportunities to act on shared priorities.
• Center success around people with lived experiences.

Come learn from your peers and their journeys bridging gaps in partnership to support primary and behavioral health integration.
