Primary Care is the First Line of Defense in Mental Health but Providers Need Better Tools
Is your hospital system looking to enhance the delivery of mental health care and improve the mental health outcomes of patients? The REACH Institute training programs equip primary care teams with the skills and tools they need to confidently deliver evidence-based mental health care to children and families.
“It is great to be a part of a continuing medical education course with others within the same department. Change is always hard, but easier with teamwork.”
Jennifer Mullally, MD

“After sending three cohorts of PCPs from across Vermont to The REACH Institute’s signature PPP training, we have seen our PCP partners grow tremendously in their confidence with treating mental health conditions, including increased comfort in evidence-based suicide prevention.”
Ellen Arrowsmith, LICSW
VTCPAP Program Director
“Equipping primary care providers with this knowledge is very important in today’s landscape, where access to mental health resources is limited and the need continues to grow. It’s incredibly inspiring to be part of a cohort of providers committed to this work. By increasing access to mental health services into our primary care offices, we can make a big impact on the outcomes and futures of our patients.”
