| Training Description: | The University of Maryland, Baltimore Training Institutes, sponsored by the University of Maryland School of Social Work and hosted by The Institute for Innovation and Implementation, will be held July 25-28, 2018 in Washington, DC.
This year's theme, Leading Change: Integrating Systems and Improving Outcomes in Behavioral Health for Children, Youth, Young Adults, and Their Families, builds upon decades of progress in designing and sustaining high-quality and effective delivery systems for children, youth, and young adults with mental health and substance use disorders and their families.
This year's Training Institutes will address data-driven policy, system design and implementation, and evidence-informed approaches relevant to Medicaid, mental health, substance use, child welfare, juvenile justice, early intervention, and prevention stakeholders and practitioners. Sessions will focus on the latest best-practice strategies; draw on community, tribal, and territorial examples from around the country; and offer concrete strategies that provide operational guidance for implementation.
The University of Maryland invites you to consider submitting a proposal to present in one of the five formats - an Institute, Workshop, Ignite Talk, session for the RockStar Youth Leadership Track, or Poster Presentation - and help to ensure the success of The Training Institutes.
