Workforce Solutions Jam: Provider Voices on AI

Real-world Insights for the Behavioral Health Workforce

As artificial intelligence (AI) continues to make waves across industries, the behavioral health field must navigate how to thoughtfully integrate these tools while maintaining person-centered care. To explore these topics, join us live for the August Workforce Solutions Jam. We’ll start with key findings from Sarah Hudson Scholle, MPH, DrPH, on the digital mental health landscape and her report, Digital Mental Health Technologies: Gaps and Opportunities in Current U.S. Regulatory Authorities.

We’ll then move into a candid panel discussion with behavioral health providers who have implemented AI tools in their organizations. This is a rare opportunity to hear directly from peers — not vendors — about what it really takes to bring AI into practice. Panelists will share their experiences, including the successes, challenges and unexpected hurdles they encountered along the way.

Whether you’re exploring AI for the first time or looking to improve your current AI strategy, this session offers practical, provider-focused insights to help guide your decision-making. 

What you’ll learn: 

• Key trends from the Digital Mental Health Technologies: Gaps and Opportunities in Current U.S. Regulatory Authorities report 
• Real-world examples of AI implementation in behavioral health settings 
• Lessons learned about rollout, staff buy-in and ethical considerations 
• How to assess whether an AI solution is the right fit for your organization 

Note: This is an education-focused session. No AI vendors will be presenting or pitching products. 

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, The College for Behavioral Health Leadership and Health Management Associates.
