“Behavioral Health Equity: Reckoning With the Pandemic’s Impact on Racial Disparities”
The COVID-19 pandemic has disproportionately affected BIPOC communities and imposed fresh urgency in the behavioral health sector to correct access and outcomes disparities, the issues of implicit bias in treatment and the socio-economic factors that lead to subpar care in underserved communities.
In this third panel session, behavioral health providers and administrators from CBC’s IPA will assess the pre-existing structural barriers to optimal care in our communities of color and begin to establish the blueprint for a more equitable post-pandemic system of care.
