Due to the cancellation of the November 1st Community-Based Initiatives Learning Community Meeting, we decided to hold a webinar to allow for a presentation and sharing of tools on "Distributive Leadership" - the main topic focus of the November 1st agenda. Because this meeting is happening virtually – the three person cap per grantee organization does not apply, and so anyone from your project can sign up to attend. We recommend viewing this webinar in a group with your project partners, if at all possible. Both Carole Martin and Susan Foster will be presenting tools and information on Distributive Leadership.
Presentation slides can be viewed by clicking on the "show/hide files" button below. The recorded webinar can be viewed by copying and pasting this address (http://cc.readytalk.com/play?id=fv15ns) in your web browser, or clicking on the third bullet below.

As grantees are thinking about who should attend the meeting, at a minimum, we ask that you attend with your project leader, a clinical leader (if possible), and a project manager. If you are able to attend with additional project representatives, we would suggest inviting a clinical social worker, a key partner/leader in your health system or community, and/or your project point person for outcomes/data.
The meeting will provide an opportunity for networking with other grantees and learning from experts about culture, policy, and practice change related to addiction care. You will also hear from Quality Counts and USM Muskie, who will spend some time introducing the technical assistance and evaluation components of the program.
