Partnering with Legal Aid Providers to Improve Behavioral and Mental Health – Part 1
January 30, 2025 | 3 PM ET
On January 30, 2025, at 3 PM ET, the National Center for Medical-Legal Partnership (NCMLP) will kick off Part One of its new webinar series, “Partnering with Legal Aid Providers to Improve Behavioral and Mental Health.” In Part One, a panel of healthcare and legal experts will explore how unmet social and legal needs impact behavioral and mental health access and outcomes for low-income and diverse adult patient populations. The panel will explain how and why they formed CCBHC-based MLP, and discuss how their model works to identify, address, and prevent legal needs from impacting the health and well-being of their adult patients. Part Two of the series will shift focus to using the MLP approach to improve pediatric behavioral and mental health. The date and registration link for Part Two will be announced soon.
This series is a key resource for health centers applying HRSA’s Advancing Health Center Excellence Framework to strengthen performance in population health and SDOH.
