Facilitation and Governance Development
I convened leadership from health systems, health plans, the local NAMI chapter, and ten county governments to collectively design, fund, and oversee the Southeast Minnesota Mental Health Crisis Center. This effort required unprecedented commitment from these organizations to a) share in the clinical oversight and governance of the center; b) balance adopting evidence-based, innovative approaches to best meet the need in the region; and c) meet funder expectations. It also requires significant trust in me to manage these complex inter-organizational dynamics and ensure the voice of the consumer is represented.
