We have a lecture series, which is a part of the Workforce Initiative, that seeks to disseminate innovations in evidence-based mental health for children and families. Lecture topics range, and include a focus on describing common emotional and behavioral problems for children and their caregivers, simple assessment techniques for identifying them, and evidence-based interventions that can successfully treat them. Presentations will be from local and national experts and provide evidence from clinical trials as well as real-world implementations with diverse populations and settings including clinics, schools, social service programs, and juvenile justice.
JOIN US NEXT THURSDAY!
Our fifth lecture of the 2015-16 season will be with Victor Rodriguez, MSW from the Tacoma-Pierce County Health Department.
The Tacoma-Pierce County Health Department is in midst of implementing an Evidence Based Parenting Intervention called Triple P aimed to:
1) build a robust network of Triple P providers
2) integrate a referral mechanism for local primary care providers to connect with their suite of family physical and behavioral health support
Victor Rodriguez, MSW will share his experience in working with EBPs through his grassroots community work as well the work the Tacoma-Pierce County Health Department (partnered with the University of Washington and sponsored by the Department of Behavioral Health and Recovery) aims to accomplish with the Triple P Urban Initiative.
