CMHS Publication Focused on Disaster Response Dialogue
A facilitated roundtable meeting brought together 20 mental health consumers, policymakers, providers, and others involved in the disaster response community who shared their experiences, perspectives, and insight. The outcome was this publication from SAMHSA's Center for Mental Health Services (CMHS), which highlights recommendations and identified opportunities for improved disaster responses to people with mental illnesses.
Natural and manmade disasters have heightened awareness of the critical need to support effective mental health responses. The dialogue gave consumers and representatives of the disaster response community an opportunity to discuss what is needed to promote recovery in such situations.
