The Northwest MHTTC is proud to partner with National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI) Seattle to present "In Our Own Voice."
NAMI In Our Own Voice presentations change attitudes, assumptions and stereotypes about people with mental health conditions. This 90-minute presentation will provide a personal perspective of mental illness, as presenters with lived experience talk openly about what it's like to live with a mental health condition. Their trained presenters humanize the misunderstood, highly stigmatized topic of mental illness by showing that it’s possible—and common—to live well with a mental health condition.
This presentation also provides:
a chance to ask presenters questions, allowing for a deeper understanding of mental health conditions and dispelling of stereotypes and misconceptions
the understanding that every person with a mental health condition can hope for a brighter future
information on how to learn more about mental health and get involved with the mental health community.

Involving people who use drugs in meaningful ways to design and deliver the services offered to them is important. People who use drugs have clear preferences, insights, and innovative ideas for service models and are eager to share their perspectives when given genuine opportunities for input and involvement!
To capture some of that vital information, the WA State Syringe Services Program Health Survey is conducted every other year by UW ADAI CEDEER in partnership with Public Health-Seattle & King County, the WA Dept of Health, and syringe services programs across the state. The surveys asks participants about their substance use, health behaviors, and health care and substance use treatment needs.
This year’s survey was conducted from November 2023-January 2024; 1,667 surveys were completed. Read the SSP survey results report here!
Join report co-authors Caleb Banta-Green and Alison Newman from ADAI on May 2 to hear more about the report and what they learned from participants in the 2023 survey!

Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences Grand Rounds-Neuroscience and genetic approaches to understand PTSD
Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) manifests after exposure to a severe traumatic event and is characterized by avoidance/numbing, intrusive symptoms and flashbacks, mood and cognitive disruptions, and hyperarousal/reactivity symptoms and feelings of pervasive fear. These phenotypes can be modeled in animal subjects using Pavlovian fear conditioning, allowing investigation of the underlying neurobiology of normative and pathological fear. Kerry Ressler, MD, PhD, will discuss recent evidence for genetic, neurobiological, and neural circuit mechanisms to understanding PTSD. Furthermore, he will explore future approaches to pharmacotherapy and other treatments for PTSD that have been developed via a bench to bedside translational model.
Dr. Ressler is the Chief Scientific Officer at McLean Hospital and Professor of Psychiatry at Harvard Medical School. He is an international leader in understanding the biology of posttraumatic stress disorder, and he is a member of the National Academy of Medicine, a prior H…

It’s estimated that 50 million adults in the United States have chronic daily pain and approximately 19.6 million of those adults are experiencing high impact chronic pain that interferes with daily life or work activities. Nation-wide the cost of chronic pain is estimated to be between $560-635 billion annually and our nation is facing an opioid crisis that, over the past two decades, has resulted in an unprecedented wave of overdose deaths associated with prescription opioids, heroin, and synthetic opioids. Multidisciplinary and biopsychosocial pain management has long been the gold standard for the treatment of care, yet most allied behavioral health professionals are not trained in evidence-based interventions for chronic pain.
This 90-minute workshop will utilize the shared knowledge of the University of Washington Center for Pain Relief’s multidisciplinary team to provide education and training on evidence-based interventions to support those in chronic pain.

Making Room for Mental Health: Reasonable Accommodations and Modifications in Housing
Housing isn't "one size fits all," and tenants with mental or behavioral health conditions might need adjustments to their housing so they, too, can have a stable, healthy home. Reasonable accommodations and modifications can help tenants make these necessary adjustments to their rental so their house can become a home. During this presentation, attorneys will review what reasonable accommodations and modifications are, how to talk to landlords about them, and provide tips on handling difficult cases. The Northwest MHTTC is proud to offer this webinar in partnership with the Tenant Law Center.

Presented by: Rachael Masaitis (Idaho DHW) and Mitch Doig & Erinn McGraw (UW ADAI), Telehealth has become more common in the healthcare world, but not everyone has access to the technology needed to use it. In Idaho, the Department of Health and Welfare led an initiative to create telehealth pods in libraries and other community spaces to help expand access to care and worked to provide funding, technical assistance, and other supports.
In an effort to support these libraries and other telehealth access sites, the Center for Advancing Addiction Health Services (CAAHS) at the UW Addictions, Drug & Alcohol Institute (ADAI) has developed a free online toolkit with the goal of providing information that is crucial to providing safe, supportive, and accessible spaces in community settings where telehealth can be accessed.
Though the toolkit is targeted at libraries implementing telehealth spaces, it can also provide useful information for clinicians who provide telehealth services and have clients who may…

Discussing & Documenting Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity (SOGI)
Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity (SOGI) are important dimensions of individual self-perception and behavior and have profound effects on health. SOGI data collection and documentation are a key component of enhancing meaningful dialogue during clinical encounters and promoting the provision of high-quality care. If clinicians do not know their client’s SOGI status and sexual behavior, important therapeutic and preventive services may be ignored, including referrals for medical or support services, and HIV and STI screening.
Our second session will highlight best practices for obtaining and documenting SOGI data and help build provider skills and confidence in these activities.
Learning Objectives:
- Define and differentiate sexual orientation, gender, and sex.
- Differentiate gender modality, identity, and expression.
- Identify how asking questions about sexual orientation, gender, and sex improves healthcare for the patient and explain this value to others.
- Describe how stigma operates in healthca…

This is a vulnerable population and their providers – ACT teams – are at elevated risk themselves during the COVID-19 pandemic.

PrEP Talk: Enabling Mental Health Professionals to Lead in Prevention
Pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) refers to medications for HIV-negative people to prevent them from getting HIV-infected. Current guidelines from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommend informing all sexually active adults and adolescents about PrEP, but in a large 2020 survey of outpatient mental health care programs, only 33% of programs offered HIV testing and only 20% prescribed PrEP.
Behavioral health treatment settings offer opportunities for identifying the need for PrEP and linking clients to services. Our third session will provide information about the effectiveness of PrEP for reducing risk of acquiring HIV and describe criteria for eligibility and best practices for initiating and monitoring persons receiving PrEP prescriptions.
Learning Objectives:
• Provide an overview of PrEP
• Review PrEP efficacy and effectiveness
• Assess PrEP side effects, risks, HIV-1 drug resistance, and other concerns

The landlord-tenant relationship has evolved considerably in the last 50-some years, and yet housing providers sometimes still behave like feudal lords of the land. A tenant who does not understand the actual terms of the modern rental relationship can be swayed by what sound like convincing statements or directives from their landlords, which actually are not in accord with current law at all. The landlord-tenant relationship works when both parties remain professional and businesslike. Generally, a large portion of the tenant’s monthly income is paid to their landlord. When paying for housing, tenants have the right to be treated fairly and lawfully. We will discuss working with landlords and property managers and owners who flout the law and make tenants believe genuine issues don’t matter. The Northwest MHTTC is proud to offer this webinar in partnership with the Tenant Law Center.
