Reimagining Behavioral Health Reimagining Behavioral Health A New Vision for Whole-Family, Whole-Community Behavioral Health KALI GRANT, SOPHIE KHAN, INDIVAR DUTTA-GUPTA, NATHANIEL COUNTS, MADELINE REINERT, & THERESA NGUYEN SUMMER 2019 Georgetown Center on Poverty and Inequality The Georgetown Center on Poverty and Inequality (GCPI) works with policymakers, researchers, practitioners, advocates, and people with lived experience to develop effective policies and practices that alleviate poverty and inequality in the United States. GCPI conducts research and analysis, develops policy and programmatic solutions, hosts convenings and events, and produces reports, briefs, and policy proposals. We develop and advance promising ideas and identify risks and harms of ineffective policies and practices, with a cross-cutting focus on racial and gender equity. The work of GCPI is conducted by two teams: the Initiative on Gender Justice and Opportunity and the Economic Security and Opportunity Initiative. Economic Security and Opportunity Initiative at GCPI The mission of the Georgetown Center on Poverty and Inequality’s (GCPI) Economic Security and Opportunity Initiative (ESOI) is to expand economic inclusion in the United States through rigorous research, analysis, and ambitious ideas to improve programs and policies. Further information about GCPI’s ESOI is available at www.georgetownpoverty.org. Mental Health America Mental Health America (MHA)—founded in 1909—is the nation’s leading community-based nonprofit dedicated to addressing the needs of people living with mental illness and to promoting the overall mental health of all Americans. Our work is driven by our commitment to promote mental health as a critical part of overall wellness, including prevention services for all, early identification and intervention for people at risk, integrated care, services, and supports for people who need it, with recovery as the goal. Much of our current work is guided by the Before Stage 4 (B4Stage4) philosophy—that mental health conditions should be treated long before they reach the most critical points in the disease process.
