Promoting Wellness for all Communities
The Community-Based Services Development Unit oversees the development and implementation of innovative community-based partnerships and strategies to help people in recovery positively integrate into their communities. Through a public health approach CBSD conducts an array outreach and engagement community building activities designed to bring awareness to the importance of emotional wellness. In addition to these activities the Unit creates initiatives designed to reach individuals who may disproportionately access services and taskforces to ensure services provided are person-first oriented (culturally competent).
These community-building activities include:
- Building and strengthening partnerships with community and faith-based organizations, providers, advocacy organizations, people in recovery, and family members
- Providing local community education about mental health, addictions challenges, and recovery to promote greater understanding and acceptance of the needs of people in recovery
- Identifying, expanding, and creating recovery-based support services for adults, children, and their families within the communities in which they live
- Working with local communities to identify and address disparities in behavioral health-related services
