New: CLAS Toolkit: Advancing Health Equity and Racial Justice in Children’s Behavioral Health
September 11, 2019 | Emily Taylor
A new resource is available to help child- and family-serving organizations develop their own Health Equity Plans to advance health equity and to reduce racial injustice and health disparities within their organizations, services, and communities. Developed by the Connecticut Department of Children and Families, CHDI, Beacon Health Options, and Health & Equity, LLC, the toolkit is based on the National Standards for Culturally and Linguistically Appropriate Services in Health and Health Care (National CLAS Standards).
