We were honored to attend the recent Child Health and Development Institute - CHDI luncheon celebrating partners across SAMHSA-funded initiatives! The event was a great opportunity to reflect on a successful year of building community with fellow grantees, and connect with clinicians, leaders, and service coordinators from CT TREE, SBIRT PATHS, and Project Champion.
A major highlight of the day: CHR was recognized for having the most individuals receiving a brief intervention, and several of our dedicated staff and supervisors were recognized for completing their MET/CBT certification! We are grateful to be able to offer this innovative model to clients we serve at CHR.
We were also proud to have Ashley Wilson, LCSW, and Michael Walters, LPCA, represent CHR on the Providers Innovation Panel, where they spoke about our agency’s work integrating SBIRT into schools and engaging justice-involved youth. Other CHR attendees that day were Caitlyn Ogilvie, LCSW, Krystal Macca, LPCA, Gina Spring, LPCA, Suzanne Sustaita, LPC, and Chanell Mundell, LPCA.
Thank you to CHDI for hosting and supporting this vital work in our community!
