At this virtual forum, we explored how policy changes to state licensure requirements can support the mental health workforce.
At this virtual session, we explored topics such as:
- Streamlining the mental health provider licensure process
- Examining differences in licensing requirements by state
- Exploring costly and time intensive pre-licensure requirements (ex. supervision hours)
- Highlighting opportunities in licensure portability, interjurisdictional compacts, and telehealth
