SUMMARY:The Interconnected Path to Wellness: Exploring the Influences Shaping Indigenous Mental Health and Driving Implementation
DESCRIPTION:Indigenous mental health is shaped by historical\, cultural\, relational\, and system-level influences. This learning series supports professionals in understanding how these factors impact trust\, engagement\, and outcomes across healthcare\, education\, and community settings. \nAcross six sessions\, participants will explore the lasting effects of the boarding school era\, historical and ongoing trauma\, barriers within care systems\, cultural protocols\, and the essential role of community and culture in healing. The series equips learners with practical ways to adapt and sustain culturally grounded practices that are respectful\, effective\, and responsive within Indigenous contexts. \nSession detailsSessions are 90 minutes and held on the first Thursday of each month:March 5 | April 2 | May 7 | June 4 | July 2 | August 6 \nTime options:11:00–12:30 PT | 12:00–1:30 MT | 1:00–2:30 CT | 2:00–3:30 ET \nParticipants may earn up to 9 CEUs for attending. \nApplication timelineApplication opens: December 16Application closes: January 30Acceptance notifications: February 5 \nThis series is open nationally and designed for professionals and leaders working with Indigenous individuals\, families\, and communities in healthcare\, education\, behavioral health\, and social services.

SUMMARY:Fidelity in the Implementation of IPS Supported Employment Services: A Learning Community
DESCRIPTION:Are you a director\, leader\, or supervisor of employment services in a mental health organization or program?  \nAre you able to implement changes and innovations within the organization or program?   \nAre you interested in learning how to identify what supports the implementation of Individual Placement and Support (IPS) Supported Employment to maintain and sustain program fidelity? The Northeast Atlantic and Caribbean Hub of CMHIS invites you to apply to participate in a free\, innovative learning community designed to equip leaders with the tools needed to maintain and sustain fidelity to IPS\, while learning strategies to identify what supports and hinders its success.  Learn from a leader in IPS services\, Sarah Swanson from the IPS Employment Center at RFMH\, Inc.\, while networking with your colleagues to implement services that align with IPS principles and fidelity.    \nOverview  \nThis four-session learning community focused on the Individual Placement and Support (IPS) model of Supported Employment was designed to support your program or agency to identify and utilize implementation strategies to support your program’s success.  Designed for providers\, supervisors\, and agency leaders\, the series builds from a basic understanding to strengthening skills to better align program practice implementation with IPS fidelity.    \nThe series begins with an overview of IPS as an evidence-based practice. Learning community participants will review the research supporting IPS\, learn the eight core IPS practice principles\, and better understand community-based services and why they are essential to effective supported employment. Special emphasis will be paid to identifying activities that support the implementation of IPS principles and exploring barriers to successful implementation. All team members are invited and encouraged to attend this overview session to build a shared understanding among those involved in the organization’s provision and implementation of employment services.   \nSessions two and three focus on the IPS Fidelity Scale. These two sessions are open to employment service leaders\, directors\, supervisors\, and others in positions to implement changes within the program and the organization. In this session\, we will examine the rationale behind key fidelity items\, and the significant role agency leadership plays in supporting IPS implementation. We will do a deeper dive into the specific strategies that support implementation and explore ways to address barriers that get in the way.    \nThe final session addresses the fidelity item around building and maintaining relationships with employers\, which has often been identified as a challenge to successful implementation. Participants will explore strategies for developing and maintaining employer relationships. Participants will also review factors that support the implementation of this fidelity item and how to navigate barriers to its implementation.  \nWhy Participate in this Learning Community   \n\nImprove your ability to maintain and sustain fidelity to IPS.  \n\n\nImprove your organization or program’s delivery of effective IPS practices.  \n\n\nLearn from a leader in the IPS field how to use fidelity data to support continuous quality improvement in employment services.  \n\nSession Dates: 3/25/26\, 4/1/26\, 4/8/26\, 4/15/26 \nTime: 10:00 – 11:30 EST\n\nTimeline: \nMonday\, March 2 – Applications open\nFriday\, March 13 – Applications due\nWednesday\, March 18 – Applicants notified of selection status\nWednesday\, March 25 – Series begins\n\nExpected Responsibilities\nIf selected to join us\, participants will be expected to: \n\nParticipate live in all four sessions.\nIdentify a team in your organization to participate in the sessions. Sessions one and four are open to all staff\, including direct service practitioners\, so please provide time for your direct service staff to attend these two sessions.\nContribute to the learning community by sharing your experiences.\n\nHow to Apply \nInterested applicants should complete the online application by 11:59 PM EST on 3/13/26. \nNotification of Acceptance  \nAll who submit a request may be accepted for participation\, depending on the overall number of requests received. If more requests are received than can be accommodated\, CMHIS will determine the selection criteria to apply. \nQuestions  \nPlease contact Joni Dolce at dolcejn@shp.rutgers.edu. Use the subject line: “Successful IPS Implementation Learning Community Application.”\n\n This event is being offered to HHS Regions 1 and 2 (ME\, NH\, VT\, MA\, CT\, RI\, NY\, NJ\, PR\, USVI).

SUMMARY:From Outcomes to Impact: Program Evaluation in Mental Health Settings
DESCRIPTION:How do we know if our programs\, practices\, and services are having the impact we hoped for? Effective program evaluation can offer insight into what is working well and what needs adjustment. The results of a comprehensive program evaluation can also be an invaluable tool in resource allocation\, informing funding decisions by both internal and external interested parties.  \nThis one-hour learning session is designed as introduction to program evaluation within mental health organizations or systems of care. Participants will receive strategies and practical tools for conducting a program evaluation in their setting and sharing the findings in meaningful ways.  \nThis session will also highlight our upcoming Program Evaluation Learning Collaborative\, an opportunity for mental health organizations and systems leaders to apply to receive intensive support around designing and implementing a program evaluation tailored to their setting. \nThis event is being offered to HHS Regions 1 and 2 (ME\, NH\, VT\, MA\, CT\, RI\, NY\, NJ\, PR\, USVI).
