“Over the past 10 years we have provided training and technical assistance to approximately 75 percent of all New York State mental health, substance use and child welfare organizations,” says Dr. Andrew A. Cleek, Chief Program Officer of NYU McSilver. “These platform improvements will allow an even wider audience to find resources relating to the challenges faced by care providers and the people they serve.”
Topics covered by CTAC, MCTAC and TTAC trainings run the gamut of concerns encountered when trying to address the needs of vulnerable children, adults and families, such as trauma, suicide prevention, early childhood development, substance use, poverty, COVID-19, improving clinical practice, workforce development, family and youth peer advocacy, improving financial and administrative practices, Medicaid managed care, value-based payment systems and alternative payment models.
