School Linked Mental Health (SLMH) Task Group
The SLMH task group was developed to advise the RCCMHC Governing Board on needs, gaps, and SLMH contracts. Since 2020, our task group has merged with the SRFC task group and DHS grantees to hold countywide virtual SLMH meetings. Other participants include MACMH and MDE.
​
The county-wide group meets 1:00 to 2:30 pm on the last Thursday of most months.
Crisis Response Task Group
The EMS & CMH task group was created to improve our multi-system response to children's mental health crises at home, at school, or in the community. In particular, the RCCMHC Board was concerned with youth experiences between home/school and ER. RCCMHC partnered with SRFC to address needs and gaps and to develop new tools, communication strategies and policies. This group is currently focused on the large increase in youth mental health acuity, youth boarding in ERs and lack of beds for inpatient/ residential.
​
The county-wide group meets 2:00 to 3:30 pm on the last Tuesday of most months.
