Breakout 2C: Delivering on Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion
Behavioral health organizations must improve diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) efforts for their employees and for the individuals and families they serve. In the wake of the worst pandemic in our lifetime and the rise of the Black Lives Matter movement there must be lasting change. The focus for organizations from the Boardroom to the individual needs to be on DEI to better deliver services that are culturally responsive as they change lives. But how do you begin to bring about this change? This presentation will discuss the current climate and how to foster DEI in behavioral health organizations.
