CSWE Collaborates With NIMH in Outreach Partnership Program

CSWE has been tapped as a National Partner in the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) Outreach Partnership Program. The program is a nationwide initiative of the NIMH Office of Constituency Relations and Public Liaison to increase public access to and benefits from participation in science-based mental health information and research. Reaching historically underserved populations is a particular goal of the program. Affiliating with national and state nonprofit organizations provides NIMH with the opportunity to engage community organizations in dialogue to better understand the needs, questions, and concerns of those intended to gain from the research it supports.
