SUMMARY:Moving From Barriers to Action: Launching or Revitalizing Your Mental Health Programs
DESCRIPTION:Are you running into challenges implementing a mental health practice or program\, struggling to get the results you want\, or not sure where to start? Most mental health practices and programs don’t stall or fail because they are ineffective. They unravel in the gap between the practice and the environment where it lands. Factors influencing implementation inform\, support\, or hinder efforts to deliver effective practices and maintain them over time.  3 free CEs available!* \nJoin the Pacific West Hub for an exciting three-part series on examining how supports (facilitators) and challenges (barriers) impact the success of mental health programs and practices! This interactive series goes beyond theory to help you assess what’s getting in the way and\, more importantly\, what to do about it. You’ll learn how to identify the key barriers and existing facilitators shaping your implementation efforts\, use a practical team-based tool to prioritize what matters most\, and choose strategies that actually fit your setting.  Whether you’re launching something new or trying to revive a struggling effort\, you’ll walk away with a clear\, actionable path forward.  \nThis opportunity is open to all states and territories. \nSession Details (Wednesdays\, 1-2:00 p.m. Pacific)\n\nSession 1 on July 29: Barriers and Facilitators to Implementation \nSession 2 on August 5: Using the IFASIS to Identify Barriers and Facilitators to Implementation\nSession 3 August 12: Choosing Implementation Strategies Intentionally to Move from Barriers to Action\n\nLearning Objectives: \n\nDescribe the types of factors (barriers/facilitators) that influence implementation of a mental health practice and strategies that support successful implementation.\nApply the Inventory of Factors Affecting Successful Implementation and Sustainment (IFASIS) for identifying factors influencing implementation and deciding which to leverage or address to effectively implement a mental health practice. \nIdentify and prioritize implementation barriers and facilitators using a practical framework and worksheet\, and select appropriate strategies to support successful implementation in their setting. \n\n\nPresenters\n \nDavid Katz\, PhD\, MPH\, Heather J. Gotham\, PhD\, Rosemary Meza\, PhD\,\nand Hélène Chokron Garneau\, PhD\, MPH \n\n*ACCREDITATION STATEMENT \nIn support of improving patient care\, Stanford Medicine is jointly accredited by the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME)\, the Accreditation Council for Pharmacy Education (ACPE)\, and the American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC)\, to provide continuing education for the healthcare team. \nAmerican Medical Association (AMA) \nStanford Medicine designates this live activity for a maximum of 3 AMA PRA Category 1 Credit(s)TM.  Physicians should claim only the credit commensurate with the extent of their participation in the activity. \nAmerican Psychological Association (APA) \nContinuing Education (CE) credits for psychologists are provided through the co-sponsorship of the American Psychological Association (APA) Office of Continuing Education in Psychology (CEP).

SUMMARY:Funding for Sustainment
DESCRIPTION:The Sustainment Learning Series is designed as a capacity‑building implementation strategy that strengthens small nonprofit and peer‑led organizations’ ability to establish and maintain stable funding systems over time. By addressing a key barrier to program sustainment—over‑reliance on short‑term or single‑source funding—the series enhances organizational readiness and builds core competencies needed for long‑term financial resilience. \nThrough a three‑part\, sequential learning process that includes assessing the external funding landscape\, selecting context‑appropriate financing strategies\, and developing an actionable sustainment plan\, participants increase both their implementation capacity and their likelihood of sustaining program activities beyond initial funding periods. \nSession Dates: \n\nAug 4\, 2026 10:30 AM\nAug 18\, 2026 10:30 AM\nSep 1\, 2026 10:30 AM\n\nFacilitators:\nShannon Higbee\, BA\, NYSCPS\, CPMC\nChief Strategy Officer\, Alliance for Rights and Recovery  \nShannon Higbee is a national leader in behavioral health systems transformation and a subject matter expert in sustainable funding\, peer workforce development\, and technical assistance. As Chief Strategy Officer at the Alliance for Rights and Recovery\, she leads national TA initiatives supporting states and providers in building\, financing\, and sustaining high-quality\, peer-led and recovery-oriented services across diverse settings\, including Certified Community Behavioral Health Clinics (CCBHCs).  \nWith over 20 years of nonprofit and executive leadership experience\, Shannon has a strong track record in securing and managing federal and state funding\, designing sustainable program models\, and helping organizations diversify funding streams while maintaining fidelity to peer support values. She has delivered national learning collaboratives\, developed training curricula\, and provided direct coaching to organizations on funding strategy\, workforce development\, and systems alignment.  \nA dynamic presenter and experienced trainer\, Shannon has led webinars\, national trainings\, and conference sessions focused on sustainable funding models\, peer service integration\, and organizational capacity building.

SUMMARY:Data to Action: Turning Findings into Action
DESCRIPTION:Collecting data is only one part of evaluation. The real impact comes from how organizations interpret findings\, communicate insights\, and use what they learn to improve programs and support long-term sustainability. \nThis three-session learning series will help participants move from collecting and interpreting data to using findings for meaningful action. Participants will explore practical strategies for translating evaluation results into decision-making\, communicating findings to different audiences\, and creating sustainability action plans that support continuous improvement. \nThrough guided discussions\, interactive activities\, and practical tools\, participants will strengthen their ability to turn evaluation findings into clear next steps that can improve services\, strengthen implementation efforts\, and support lasting organizational change. \nSession Dates & Times\n\nSession 1: July 14\, 2026 | 1:00–2:30 PM CT\nSession 2: July 28\, 2026 | 1:00–2:30 PM CT\nSession 3: August 11\, 2026 | 1:00–2:30 PM CT\n\nPlease plan to attend all three sessions if possible. The sessions are designed to build upon one another\, with each session expanding on concepts\, activities\, and planning tools introduced in previous sessions. \n\nIntended Audience\nThis series is designed for: \n\nOrganizational leaders\, program managers\, and coordinators interested in strengthening data-informed decision-making\nStaff who collect or interpret data and want to better connect findings to program action\nTeams already gathering evaluation data who need support turning findings into improvement strategies or communication tools\n\n\nLearning Objectives\nBy the end of the series\, participants will be able to: \n\nIdentify ways evaluation findings can inform program decisions and improvement efforts\nDevelop strategies to communicate data effectively to different audiences\nCreate an “Action from Data” plan that links findings to concrete next steps\nUnderstand how to track and sustain actions that result from evaluation insights
