Why is data important? What data is available? What technologies are helpful? How is data shared among partners in the system of care while assuring protections of confidentiality?

10:45 a.m.	Addressing Diversity and Health Disparities in Promoting Health and Wellness Addressing the intersections of health, mental health, and wellness requires attention to both, cultural perspectives on each of these concepts, and the structural barriers to equitable services to culturally diverse populations. A holistic conceptualization of "health" and the integration of health and mental health service delivery may contribute to the reduction of health and mental health disparities. Join the dialogue around these issues and the potential promise of using a public health approach to mental health service delivery.

1:30 p.m.	In the Beginning: Teaching True Integration and Client Centered Care Educating medical students to appreciate the importance of treatment integration of physical health, public health, mental health and addictive disorders, and the critical roles they can play is a win-win situation for everyone. Establishing relationships with medical and behavioral health disciplines during professional training is far easier than expecting separate professions to be able to adapt to each other after they are established. This session will provide insights from medical school faculty, students, and consumers who believe in this important curriculum content. Maurie Davidson, MSW, BCD, Private Practice Margaret L.
