Behavioral Health: Community Partnerships
The AHA supports and hopes to inspire initiatives by hospitals and health systems, community partners, social service agencies, and others to expand access to a continuum of behavioral health services in a region. The resources on this page showcase stories and the steps to achieving successful behavioral health community partnerships and expand access to behavioral health services at the right time, place and level of care.
The AHA Hospital Community Collaborative (HCC) provides proven ideas, insights and resources for creating effective, sustainable collaborations between hospitals and community organizations across sectors to accelerate health equity.
