SAMHSA: Introducing SAMHSA’s CCBHC Toolkit for Engaging Service Members, Veterans, and Families

Certified Community Behavioral Health Clinics (CCBHCs) play an important role in ensuring that Service Members, Veterans, and their Families (SMVF) have access to coordinated, community-based behavioral health services. To support this work, the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) released a new toolkit, Engaging Service Members, Veterans, and Families: A Toolkit for Certified Community Behavioral Health Clinics, which provides guidance, strategies, and practical resources to help organizations strengthen engagement with military-connected populations.

Join this webinar as leaders from SAMHSA, state government, and a CCBHC implementation partner introduce the toolkit and highlight its key components. Presenters will provide an overview of the toolkit’s major topic areas, including identifying SMVF within service populations, increasing awareness of military and Veteran experiences, forming partnerships with Veteran-serving organizations, and addressing factors that may influence engagement and service coordination.
