Three Years of Impact for the Behavioral Health Forum

The BHT Behavioral Health Forum is a group of behavioral health provider organizations and educational institutions that has met regularly since 2021 to collaborate on solutions to behavioral health workforce challenges. In 2022, the group became a self-governing body and began using participatory decision-making practices to allocate $1.2M to initiatives that support the behavioral health workforce. As of November 2024, all funds have been allocated and we are celebrating the group’s successes by highlighting the impact the group has had in our region!

Honoring National Native American Heritage Month

At BHT, we share a commitment to Indigenous communities as we address the unique health challenges they face, which are deeply rooted in historical inequities and ongoing systemic barriers. We support Native-led and Native-serving organizations through both funding opportunities and our Tribal Partners Collaborative, which seeks to bring together community leaders to address Native health.

Creating Regional Impact With Grant-Writing Stipends

At the heart of many community-based initiatives lies the need for reliable funding, and securing those resources often requires a strong grant-writing strategy. Recognizing this critical need, we launched an initiative designed to directly support organizations in their pursuit of additional funding. As part of our ongoing commitment to building capacity within the community, we allocated up to $220,000 for Grant-Writing Stipends in 2024. These stipends were available to organizations seeking technical assistance in grant writing, empowering them to work with a grant-writing consultant of their choice.
