Recently, there have been events that have put a pause on the process and have plunged our country into animated conversation but were mainly about bad news - 9 / 11, the invasion of Iraq and recently loans of Wall Street. The election was n? No news defective? a distraction as a merger of celebrit?, actually imported. And as a result of this incredible election season, America? s children are likely? grow up unaware that? s something unusual about a president of the African-American or a woman who runs for the House.2008 white SuccessNow legislation, it? s excitement over the elevation and oratione russante in some cases, property and the main debates - the presidential campaigns are over. It was my great fortune to attend the Democratic National Convention and say in speeches and through the actions that our community? actually made a step forward. We had Senator Kennedy? s appearance of sour and his firm that was what? critical to the passage of equal?, Michelle Obama? sa unexpected reference to mental health when he talked about health? Universal Bill Clinton? s description of a mother struggling with her children? autism; the "never seen; room" recovery, for a convention, and a lunch honoring the campaign for reform of mental health that included the celebrit? A list of what? as the heads of the political condition and citizens throughout the vocal in their support of mental health and treatment accessible and affordable to add. The rhetoric of the convention? been combined within one year legislative extremely successful: the delay to give the rules of Medicaid services on rehabilitation and the administration appointed to the case and the introduction of rehabilitation services Medicaid behave; passage of equality? State of Health Care; legislation extending veterans of the added services and mental health over the VA out of the community?; better collaboration between criminal justice and mental health; expansion of the definition of unfit? in ADA, which makes pi? easy for people with disable? obtain protection against distinction disable?-based, and passage of distinction of health insurance to conclude equality?. ? once promising for people with disable?. The success of policy and legislation reflects the tremendous progress. And proponents of the use of the substance and mental health - united by a presidential campaign - may share a path forward in a new era. The timing of CapacityBut service and economy are hard in the community? across the country - and the world, people who lose their jobs, their homes and their savings for retirement. Many of us have to pass the National Council these past few months traveling from the condition to the condition and the community? to the community?. And see from these trips filled with anxiety. As they? the attempt to manage their budgets very fragile economy, increased demand for health services might be mentally on a collision course with the imminent cuts in public services constituted a fund. Our network already? torn safety of additions and salubrit? Mental? in grave danger of sinking and unemployment rates go up, anxiety over the future develops and demand of services? a whole level of time. We invite the conditions to resist cutting mental health services and essential, and we added? King incitement for the federal stimulus package that includes relief for Medicaid and financial contributions so that it can meet the community? to treatment during the months and perhaps years to come hard. At the same time, our industry - industry behavioral healthcare? - Must be ready to work with the pi? great efficiencies and be responsible for every dollar of taxpayer. And the National Council? s proud of the initiatives - our access and restraint, six sigma and project evaluation process - those of us? The VE presented to support the efforts of the State to improve access, generation of pi? capacity for effective treatment and the coupling of consumers and communities? in the process of recovery. Our role in a progressive EraNow the question? asked? what? s our role in a new administration, in a new era? One of President-elect Obama? s challenges will be to exploit the extraordinary idealism that inspired in his campaign to a pi? great national cause. Seem to leave the Conservative agenda and enter into an era of progressive scan. Progressive era? shaped by the millennia with their growing Internet and a new breed of very rich who are using their wealth to support progressive causes and responsibility? demanding in exchange for philanthropy. But in a new era, the reality?, The pitch or the shape of healthcare reform? -? uncertain. Washington? gi? in turmoil with groups of health? inciting their views and potential candidates for Alberini health? in new management that their lucid summaries. But the economy, policies and history suggest that all major revision of our system of healthcare delivery? is a difficult process at best. The health? now? pi? large "complex" military-industrial, about which we were alerted in 50 years, in the 60s and 70s; el? s no sector of economy with pi? politically powerful special interests. So far health? behavior? s progress has traditionally received little attention. And our community? has a good story to tell. While the costs of health? have risen to the stars, our services, not to the extent historically, have seen modest increases. Economist Richard Frank, Harvard University and co-author of the best but not well, uses data from the National Co-morbidity discuss the case that pi? money is spent on mental health but on health? Mental? Part of the s P.I.L. ? constant and associated costs of health is declining while the access, quality? and contributions to people with mental illness have increased. We have data that tell a story coercive, and science that supports the return on investment. What? What about us? It? s almost a sure bet that the management following comprender? treatments for mental illness and additions throughout the expansion of filling health. We? The ll be? included in the move towards universal filling, if incrementally as the re-authorization of Schip or as a component of the reform pi? as the full program offered by Ezekiel Emanuel (Dr. Emanuel, who? invited to speak at the National Council? Congress knows San Antonio, "the brother of Obama? the new chief of staff Rahm Emanuel of s) in health? has Guaranteed. But the inclusion of universal strategies or filling the reform will resolve? the fundamental problems that we face? At best, the reform we afford? begin to solve our own problems. The health? Mental problems communicating pi? large health system, and how health? suffer the unintended consequences of policy. We threw out the medicine with the medical model, now we? re conversation as if we? The VE has just discovered that mental health? essential to health and the result? people with serious mental illness is dying away equally young. We have introduced Medicaid in every possible service, we have promoted decentralization and the market and now? King was threatened by the same accordingly - Fragmentation. Over the years, the risk and responsibility? programs have been subject to the terms of community organizations? without the resources needed to keep up with mental health, added enhancements and co-occurring treatment; without the resources to generate organizational infrastructure that supports those changes, and without the resources had to coordinate and ensure good medical care for people with serious mental illness. Instead of investment in services quality, the conditions have introduced the mediators to direct what still call their "system" - the result? a labor and trade deskilled as usual. And in some cases, suppliers have lost the trust of their communities?. How? VE always been the pi? was relegated to and paid for only treat people with mental illness pi? series, their communities? have been left to drift. The prevention of mental health and speech were part of the very initial concept of health? Mental based community?. We have justified eliminating the funding for those services identified as U.S. dollars wasted on "well" worried;. The service of your community? means of travel and accommodation sensible to react: flexible hours that measure programs of the people who work in; availability? emergency and a presence in all aspects of the community? where aid? necessary - schools, prisons, more centers, nursing homes and adoptive unabated. Also means the UN bid to stop buying, sending people to places multiple service doesn 't work very well and doesn? t work at all when there? little to no coordination. We can transform organizations that will be operated by a progressive agenda and will be supported by the new coalitions? I think the question is a response to another question. We can offer a vision of community? always pi? freely by the additives and adapt mentally, a vision of community? where those with historical data to add and mental disorders are included not excluded from traditional life, and can be responsible for quality? service we provide - the samples and practice? We can make the training as did the vision of the responsibility? If the answer? s?, then perhaps the new entrepreneurial philanthropy will? from our side and perhaps a president elected by day Obama write? about personal health behavior writes about how teachers nell'audacia of hope, "L? s no reason why an experienced, highly - shouldn qualified and effective teacher? t earns $ 100,000
