CARE Collaborators

The CARE partnership includes core and advisory teams of individuals representing diverse cultural groups, public mental health consumers, provider agencies, payer and state organizations, and clinical and scholarly experts. The advisory team has three subcommittees: Cultural Responsivity Training (CRT), Workforce Development/Wellbeing Services, and Policy/Organizational Support. A community sounding board also provides feedback to guide team decisions.

We are immensely grateful to the partners and collaborators who were instrumental to designing and advancing the CARE project during its first year! Here is a list of year-one CARE partners and collaborators.
