We’re excited to launch Implementation in Action, our bimonthly newsletter designed to bring you timely updates, practical resources, and opportunities to strengthen your organization’s ability to prepare, implement, and sustain effective mental health treatments and services.

We open our first issue with a message from Benjamin Druss, Director of the East Coast Hub for Mental Health Implementation Support. He shares our guiding philosophy: integrating the latest research and expert knowledge with practical, real-world strategies that can help organizations drive meaningful practice change.

Each edition of Implementation in Action will spotlight one of the eight core topics essential to successful mental health service delivery and offer practical tools to help you turn knowledge into action. This month’s focus is Measurement-Based Care (MBC)—a clinical approach that uses patient-reported outcomes to guide treatment decisions and improve outcomes. Read on to learn more about MBC, including an overview of this underutilized clinical process, key components, and practical tools to support its implementation. We also include a link to our Fundamentals of Measurement-Based Care recording in our Resource Spotlight section.

We conclude this issue by sharing ways to connect and collaborate with the East Coast Hub, so you can stay informed about resources and opportunities that help you turn knowledge into action.
