The Health Resources and Services Administration has projected
the supply of workers in select behavioral health professions to be
approximately 250,000 workers short of the projected demand in 2025. The
problem is most acute in rural areas.
Presented by the National Council on Aging (NCOA), this
webinar will look at new and increased efforts to improve recruitment for
and training capacity in many mental health disciplines. It will also
explore the use of tele-behavioral health programs and policy initiatives
such as funding the Behavioral Health Workforce Education and Training
Program.
Presenter:
- Ron Manderscheid, Ph.D.,
Executive Director of the National Association of County Behavioral
Health and Developmental Disability Directors and the National
Association for Rural Mental Health.
