Mark your calendars for Wednesday, Dece
mber 9, 2020. Starting at 12 pm, join BHECN

2020 is closing at a time of unc ertainty for those working in the behavioral health field. How will the res ults of the election shape national and state policy around behavioral heal th care?

During this forum, we will examine how the resul ts of the 2020 election and the COVID-19 pandemic are both poised to have a profound effect on policies that shape behavioral health care at national and state levels.
