Webinar: A conversation on Latinx identities, discrimination and mental health
Webinar: A conversation on Latinx identities, discrimination and mental health
Submitted by DBHR Athena Adm... on Thu, 07/01/2021 - 14:05
Recent events have evidenced how structural inequities, racism and discrimination contribute to the health and mental health experiences of communities of color. In the United States, 92% of Blacks, 78% of Latinxs, 75% of Native Americans, and 61% of Asian Americans have reported experiencing racial discrimination in the form of racial slurs, violence, threats, and harassment. For Latinx, the intersectionality of identities may also contribute to the way health and mental health is experienced and expressed. This conversation is geared at addressing how Latinx identities, discrimination, and mental health interact. Our panelist will provide insight from the mental health and social justice perspective on the impact of these variables on Latinx communities. The panel will provide recommendations for practitioners, including how advocacy can be an important element in mental health services.
Who should attend? This webinar is designed for mental health providers including psychologists, clinical social workers, mental health counselors, and graduate level students in the mental health field.

Cannabis Regulation: High Time for a Public Health & Equity Approach
Submitted by csteele on Tue, 06/01/2021 - 10:37
Public Health Law Center As an ever-growing number of states consider legalizing and regulating recreational cannabis, questions continue to arise about evidence-based practices grounded in public health and social equity. Our webinar briefly overviews basic regulatory options for cannabis legalization that are informed by tobacco control and other best practices. Speakers look at takeaways from California's recreational cannabis system, which has been in operation for several years, and describe how lessons learned from tobacco regulation and public health could be applied at the state and local level in other states newer to legalization, like Michigan.

Webinar: How to present data to leadership
Submitted by DBHR Athena Adm... on Tue, 06/08/2021 - 10:07
The aggregation and reporting of data—PQI, financial, and other critical information—is essential to sustaining the health of organizations and advancing their culture of excellence. And within organizations, evaluation and research teams are skilled at collecting and analyzing this data. However, presenting data effectively to executives and other internal stakeholders is not as straightforward as it might seem. If we are honest, most of our data presentations are non-engaging (boring), saturated with numbers and graphs (not aesthetically pleasing), and can be needlessly confusing (lacking simplicity). This webinar will offer tips and strategies to help you translate mounds of data and analysis into presentations that engage leaders and increase their understanding and appreciation of essential information. Sponsored by the Alliance-COA Performance Excellence APEX , this session will help you apply creativity to presentations that will result in leaders understanding the value and opportunities in data aggregation and analysis. We will focus on fostering solutions that make data presentations more engaging and effective, while igniting leaders’ desire to dive deeper into more substantial reports. Three main About the Performance Excellence APEX This community connects professionals who have primary responsibilities for the performance excellence activities of their organizations and provides them with tactical tools, content, shared experience, and advice.

Presented by the National Institute on Drug Abuse in partnership with the Society for Prevention Research, the Native Children’s Research Exchange Scholar Program (NCRE), and INSPIRE: Indigenous Substance Use and Addictions Prevention Interdisciplinary Research Education. The National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA), Society for Prevention Research (SPR), Native Children Research Exchange, and INSPIRE would like to invite you to participate in an online discussion, “Addressing structural racism in and through work as an Indigenous focused prevention scientist: Opportunities for the new generation of scholars to make change”. In the wake of the events of the last year, confronting structural racism, the systems that work in various ways to perpetuate racial group inequity, has become a clear mandate. Making progress is critical in all sectors of society, including academe, research, and policy. This session will focus on the ways that a new generation of scholars focused on Indigenous prevention research are and can work to implement meaningful change, including by insisting that this burden be addressed by all scholars – not just Indigenous scholars. Panelists will include early career and senior scholars and will feature a discussion of relevant topics. The focus will include both making changes within research institutions as well as exploring how research can help to address structural racism and structural disadvantage in Indigenous communities and can inform policy.

Webinar: A new call to action: Enhancing prevention ethics to meet current challenges
Submitted by DBHR Athena Adm... on Thu, 07/01/2021 - 11:08
The Prevention Think Tank Code of Ethics outlines six principles that govern the professional behavior of substance misuse prevention practitioners: Non-Discrimination, Competence, Integrity, Nature of Services, Confidentiality and Ethical Obligations for Community and Society. Ethical considerations underpin every aspect of our work - from how we select which substance misuse-related issues to address, to how we partner with and engage members of our focus communities, and beyond – and the code of ethics expresses the responsibilities we have and values we hold as preventionists to our colleagues, the people we serve and the general public. This two-part series will explore how our prevention priorities and efforts have changed (and will continue to change) amid the challenges brought on by our country’s recent reckoning with racial inequity and its pandemic experience. We will also discuss the role of the Prevention Code of Ethics as a touchstone for our field,= and introduce an approach for critically evaluating its principles to determine how to better align them with current and emerging needs within the prevention landscape. Participants will also have the opportunity to develop a personal action plan for enhancing the ethical performance of their professional responsibilities during the sessions. Learning objectives:

Programming is offered each day from 9 a.m.- 1 p.m. PT with two short breaks. July Session: July 15, 22, 29 Participation Rates
Given the continued emergence of an interconnected society, a global pandemic, and protests and unrest calling for racial justice, building organizational capacity for advancing equity, diversity, and inclusion is more critical than ever. The need for leaders within social sector organizations to understand and engage the current environment is essential in building an equitable society for all. This journey begins by ensuring all people feel valued at work. It mandates the co-creation of an inclusive workforce that can foster the development of a healthy, productive, and peaceful society in which all people can participate and reach their full potential. During this virtual workshop presented by the Alliance for Strong Families and Communities-Council on Accreditation, participants will explore their relationships with equity, diversity, and inclusion (EDI) in a safe environment and make progress on developing an EDI action plan for their organizations. Because advancing EDI requires more than just basic knowledge and the will to improve, presenters will help participants understand their own biases as well as the role of historical discrimination, non-inclusive behavioral actions, and culture in creating an unjust society. The workshop will include presentations of valuable information, facilitated discussions, reflection opportunities, and dedicated planning time. In addition to learning about core concepts, participants will put ideas into action with facilitated planning time. Everyone will have the opportunity to begin developing action plans for advancing their organizations’ EDI journeys. As such, organizations are encouraged to send multiple employees that together can develop or work on current EDI plans for advancement. About the Intercultural Development Inventory® (IDI®) Add this assessment to your workshop registration to receive practical and in-depth information. Individuals will receive a customized IDI® Individual Profile Report and participate in a 60-minute one-on-one debrief session with Alliance-COA Director of Evaluation and Research Phyllis Richards to discuss their results and develop a plan to meet their personal intercultural development goals. Richards is a qualified administrator of the IDI® and has more than a decade of experience in working collaboratively to address systemic racism and improve cultural competency. Workshop Goals

Webinar: Policy implications of COVID-19 on alcohol and marijuana use
Submitted by DBHR Athena Adm... on Thu, 07/01/2021 - 11:14
Since the onset of COVID-19, many states and communities have dramatically loosened restrictions on alcohol and marijuana use and access, including restrictions on delivery, internet sales, takeout, and outdoor consumption. Justification for these changes includes economic relief for small businesses, COVID safety, and the accepted norm that substance use is a reasonable coping strategy. The nature of alcohol and marijuana use has also changed since the start of COVID. More people are drinking or using marijuana in isolation or as a means of coping for depression, anxiety, or boredom. This webinar will offer strategies for monitoring and mitigating the effects of these changes to ensure that they are temporary. LEARNING OBJECTIVES:

Webinar: Native American storytelling: Culture is prevention
Webinar: Native American storytelling: Culture is prevention
Submitted by DBHR Athena Adm... on Fri, 05/14/2021 - 11:53
This series of sessions features traditional Native American storytelling, along with time for discussion on what can be learned from the stories, as well as the ways these stories can be incorporated by Native American providers into their work with patients. Please note that while we encourage non-Native providers to attend these sessions to increase your cultural understanding and sensitivity, we ask that out of respect for cultural traditions, you do not use these stories as your own if they are not a part of your culture. Native storytelling is an long honored way of teaching lessons of life. We, as Native people, need to laugh while learning. For example, laughing at how Coyote makes funny mistakes. This can teach people how to avoid behaving as Coyote does. Further, Native legends can offer stories about Creation or the Trickster. However, some stories can only be told during certain times of the year. For example, Coyote legends are only told during the winter time because that is often when Native people would be in their lodges practicing survival skills to help the tribe thrive in difficult times. Traditionally, the storyteller needed to be an excellent psychologist and able to understand peoples’ perspectives. A story might be used in treatment to help a patient come to a realization in a culturally informed way. Story 3: The Use of the Ecosystem for Positive Mental and Behavioral Health-Navajo Traditional Perspective July 13 will be the final Storytelling event, so hosts are planning to extend the broadcast by one hour. Following Mr. Begay’s scheduled storytelling hour, all of previous Native Storytellers from this series have been invited to join during the second hour.

Are you asking yourself "how do I lead in the situation when there is no one specifically in charge, multiple stakeholders are involved in the decision making process, and there is no way you can force people to do what needs to be done?" Leadership is not about the job, the title, or the position … it's not about you at all! It is about the purpose, the group of people who are charged with producing something related to that purpose in partnership and collaboration with others. Leadership today requires a paradigm shift in order to be more effective and deliver results. Learning Objectives

Session overview Feel like you’ve been running nonstop since you can’t remember when? Is your tank on empty? It’s been a lot. This session is designed for all of you who have been navigating twists and turns, pushing forward through unpredictable and changing circumstances, and mustering energy to care for students and coworkers day after day. Together, we will take pause to consider how to make sense of the stress we experience, understand how long term exposure to crisis changes how we function, and link to specific things we can do right now to improve our sense of balance, calm, and capacity to connect. This is the introduction to a series intended to help you reset and restore your own sense of wellness, and to help inform the way districts and schools promote cultures of care that benefit staff and partners.

The Prevention Think Tank Code of Ethics outlines six principles that govern the professional behavior of substance misuse prevention practitioners: Non-Discrimination, Competence, Integrity, Nature of Services, Confidentiality and Ethical Obligations for Community and Society. Ethical considerations underpin every aspect of our work - from how we select which substance misuse-related issues to address, to how we partner with and engage members of our focus communities, and beyond – and the code of ethics expresses the responsibilities we have and values we hold as preventionists to our colleagues, the people we serve and the general public. This two-part series will explore how our prevention priorities and efforts have changed (and will continue to change) amid the challenges brought on by our country’s recent reckoning with racial inequity and its pandemic experience. We will also discuss the role of the Prevention Code of Ethics as a touchstone for our field,= and introduce an approach for critically evaluating its principles to determine how to better align them with current and emerging needs within the prevention landscape. Participants will also have the opportunity to develop a personal action plan for enhancing the ethical performance of their professional responsibilities during the sessions. Learning objectives:

A SAMHSA-sponsored webinar presented on behalf of Mental Health America Thursday, July 22, 2021 at 2:30 pm Eastern Time called Trauma Informed Practices in Schools: Understanding Racial Trauma and Cultivating Wellness. Trauma can lead to a variety of negative cognitive, emotional, and behavioral outcomes that affect student learning and performance. Educational environments that lack racial and ethnic diversity (among students, teachers, and/or administrators) are often unaware of the impact of racial trauma and how different cultures respond to trauma. When administrators and school staff understand the role of systemic oppression in and out of schools, they can create an environment that is healthier for the whole community.

Part 1 in this three-part online seminar series addresses how to manage the multiple stressors impacting service providers and those they serve. The series will present a model of the helper as witness that provides concrete suggestions as to how the provider can shift from feeling ineffective to feeling effective and competent. Participants will learn ways of activating resilience, creating a self-care toolbox, and managing grief and loss. As the losses mount with the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, people are feeling a range of emotions. Confusion, fear, anger, and sadness are strong, as is grief. Grief usually takes shared public forms, but during the pandemic, there are constraints. In this online seminar, Kaethe Weingarten, PhD, presents materials about grief in general and grief in the circumstances of the pandemic. We discuss the particular challenges of grief following estrangement or ambiguous loss. We look at ways to support others – clients, friends, colleagues, family members – without becoming overburdened ourselves, so that we may avoid empathic pitfalls while offering support. Throughout the online seminar, we create ways for participants to share their experiences and form a felt sense of community. We need to balance despair with hope, and hope is something best done with others. For 90 minutes, we become your community. Other webinars in this series include:

Featuring: Aldora White Eagle, Ed.D., Northern Arapaho As Indigenous peoples, it is important to recognize the gifts that were bestowed upon us and use them as we center ourselves in times of chaos, peace, and uncertainty. As Arapaho people, we were given certain gifts, values, and lessons to assist and guide us as we navigate through our time on this earth. However, due to inter-generational trauma and colonization, we have lost our way, but by utilizing what Creator has gifted us, we are able to re-center our ways of thinking and healing.

Além disso, temos que lidar com muitas perdas individuais incluindo o adoecimento ou morte de entes queridos, amigos ou conhecidos e muitas preocupações novas como a nossa saúde física e mental, as incertezas quanto ao futuro, como ajudar a nós mesmos, nossos parentes e amigos enlutados, e como nos sentirmos seguros de novo enquanto mantendo a esperança e a responsabilidade social.
