How Will Federal & State Mental Health Policy Changes Effect You?

March 21, 2018 by Chris Liu-Beers

The NYAPRS Executive Seminar is only a month away! Don’t miss this unique opportunity to hear from some of the nation’s and state’s most prominent policy makers and experts about where we are and where we’re heading.

This year’s program will feature the nation’s top mental health official, new HHS Assistant Secretary for Mental Health and Substance Use Dr. Elinore McCance-Katz who will inform us of the policy directions the Trump Administration are taking that will affect us all.

This will be followed by a reaction panel that includes perspectives from nationally respected representatives from key stakeholder communities, namely consumer advocate Elena Kravitz, noted family advocate and author Pete Earley, Rebecca Farley from the nation’s leading provider advocate (the National Council), leading rights advocate Jennifer Mathis from the Bazelon Center and prominent community psychiatrist Dr. Pablo Sadler.

Following lunch, we’ll hear on the ground experts about where NYS is heading to meet these challenges that will include Dr. Ian Shaffer, Donna Colonna, Jeff McQueen, Kate Davidson and OMH’s Bob Myers.

On Friday we have opening remarks by our outgoing NYS Medicaid Director Jason Helgerson with remarks and discussion by Greg Allen, Bob Myers, and Rob Kent followed by a panel that will discuss how they are taking on systemic challenges in the wake of the new budget agreement and Medicaid trends.

Our Seminar has long gathered all of the right people in the room to look at where we are and are heading. Don’t miss this year’s power packed program. See the program below and via the attachment register today at click here to Register Today!
