PARTNERSHIP SPOTLIGHT

 

The Alameda County Network of Mental Health Clients

Whenever access to health services is discussed, the conventional solutions proposed tend to center on ideas of costs and logistics; how to get more patients to clinicians. For the Alameda County Network of Mental Health Clients (a.k.a. The Network), however, access is not only about how you get there, but how you’re seen once you arrive.

With that understanding, the Network is determined to combine their informed peer-led assistance with state-of-the-art, non-profit business practices enhanced through a technical assistance partnership with Felton Institute. 

PARTNERSHIP SPOTLIGHT

 

Westside
Community Services
 

Fifty years ago, a group of black and Japanese leaders from the Western Addition of San Francisco founded an organization with the specific goal of serving the needs of the black community. Today, Westside Community Services, remains a pillar of the African American community, offering a more holistic approach to health care through the services it provides.

Those services are expansive. They’ve developed programing specifically for, and led by, formerly incarcerated individuals, which accounts for a third of their workforce.
