We invite persons with lived mental health experience, family members, DMH staff & providers to attend the 2021 Annual DMH Research Centers of Excellence Conference. This event offers an Inside Look at the Centers of Excellence: How Stakeholder-Engaged Research Can Change Care Provision and Policy.

Overall Goal:
DMH funded two new centers of research excellence in October 2018. This will be the first research conference for those two centers. The goal of this conference is for DMH clients, their family members, DMH staff, and providers to learn more about the work these two centers are doing, and for these centers to learn about how their research can best support DMH, its mission, and the people served by DMH. The conference will emphasize stakeholder engaged research, including the importance of engaging persons living with mental health challenges, their family members, and the providers and staff who serve them in all phases of the research process.

Target Audience: Persons Served, Family Members, Providers, Clinical & Professional Staff, and Researchers
