"Workforce is an essential and foundational component for any attempts to address population health. Without"

This is an excellent piece that speaks to the need and what meeting that need can deliver. Being a very old person w/o a degree in MH all I can do is support these efforts. Though a few years ago I discovered crisis counseling as a volunteer. I do that work (volunteer=work for free) nearly daily. So I guess in the abstract I'm engaged at a community level.

Not sure that counts since being a volunteer, in any field, is kind of meh to those organizations. I do know that I can put out emotional couch fires. The system as you present needs to help but the house fires out.
