SUMMARY:Advancing Behavioral Health Equity: Integration of the National CLAS Standards in Service Delivery
DESCRIPTION:The intent of the National Culturally and Linguistically Appropriate Standards (NCLAS) is to improve the quality of care\, help eliminate health care disparities\, and advance health equity by establishing a blueprint for health and healthcare organizations to implement culturally and linguistically appropriate services. \nMore than two decades after the release of the original CLAS Standards\, and eight years since the enhanced National CLAS Standards were published\, there is still much work to be done. Racial/ethnic disparities in health and health care remain a public health challenge\, despite advances in health care technology and new delivery systems\, and even when factors such as health insurance coverage\, income\, and educational level are taken into consideration. \nBy providing standards and specific action steps to implement culturally and linguistically appropriate services\, the enhanced NCLAS can improve an organization’s ability to address behavioral health care disparities. \nCome inform your service delivery\, agency approach and improve clinical outcomes by: \n–       Expanding and deepening your understanding of the NCLAS \n–       Discovering ways to improve access to care\, promote quality and reduce disparities \n–       Learning about resources to further implement these in your work \nFacilitated by Dr. Suganya Sockalingam & Scott van Loo\, this webinar will provide a foundational understanding of the NCLAS and its three themes: \n–       Governance and Leadership \n–       Communication and Language Assistance \n–       Accountability\, Quality Improvement and Community Engagement \nHosted in collaboration with the Pacific Southwest MHTTC.

SUMMARY:Compensation Equity: A Values-Based Framework & Implementation Guide
DESCRIPTION:Organizations deeply committed to justice are actively considering ways of making their compensation more equitable. And it is not easy. As leaders\, we confront labor market forces and the pervasive culture of secrecy around money even as our beliefs are shifting about how work and lived experience should be valued in a social justice context. \nIn this webinar\, the consulting team from Vega Mala Consulting will share a framework they have developed called the Compensation Scale Equity Process and Calculator™. This process and tool support organizations already deeply committed to equity\, to: \n\ndesign a pay scale that embodies organizational values;\nanalyze their current salaries for pay equity; and\,\ntransition along a continuum from a market-based salary policy to an anti-racist reparations model that works to reverse-engineer racist pay policies.Please note: This webinar is best suited to organizations steeped in equity values and comfortable challenging traditional compensation assumptions and practices.

SUMMARY:OASAS Harm Reduction with Andrew Tatarsky\, PhD
DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, May 12\, 2022\, 2:00-3:30 pm: Title TBA with Andrew Tatarsky\, PhD\, Founder and Director of The Center for Optimal Living \n\nPresenter Bio: Andrew Tatarsky has worked with people who use drugs and their families for over 40 years. Andrew developed Integrative Harm Reduction Psychotherapy (IHRP) for treating the spectrum of risky and addictive behavior as an alternative to traditional abstinence-only substance use treatment. IHRP brings relational psychoanalysis\, CBT and mindfulness together in a harm reduction frame. IHRP meets people wherever they are on their positive change journeys and works collaboratively to support people in discovering their truth and what goals and approach to positive change best suit them. The therapy has been described in his book\, Harm Reduction Psychotherapy: A New Treatment for Drug and Alcohol Problems\, and a series of papers. He is Founder and Director of the Center for Optimal Living in NYC\, a treatment\, education and professional training center based on IHRP. His writing\, teaching\, clinical work and leadership aim to promote a re-humanized view of problematic substance use and a harm reduction continuum of care that will extend help to everyone who needs and wants it wherever they are ready to begin their positive change journeys.
