Clinicians see where behavioral health systems break down every day: gaps in treatment, workforce shortages, reimbursement barriers, lack of appropriate levels of care, and families struggling to navigate services. But how does what you see in clinical practice make its way to the people making decisions in Helena?

This practical two-hour webinar will help Montana clinicians understand when, where, and how to bring their clinical expertise into the policy process. Participants will learn how to navigate Montana’s legislative and behavioral health policy landscape, identify when their voice can have the greatest impact, and communicate effectively with policymakers as both constituents and clinical subject matter experts.

Rather than simply explaining how a bill becomes a law, this training focuses on practical advocacy skills clinicians can use to help shape policies and systems that better support their patients.
