Register for Bridges to Mental Health
The Bridges to Mental Health Workforce Expansion Project trains primary care, specialty physicians, advanced practice providers, nurses, and mental health workers to: improve their diagnostic and therapeutic skills; strengthen their confidence to expand their care; and heighten their awareness of common psychiatric disorders. This workforce training—believed to be the first of its kind nationally—helps mitigate the access crisis by initiating early mental health treatment in areas where patients and the public already come for care—where specialists, primary care physicians, advanced practice providers, and nurses may be able to capitalize on the willingness of the patient to investigate all aspects of disease origin and the reason for their visit.
