Task Forces, Work Groups, Special Initiatives

From time to time, Direct Care and Treatment convenes special task forces and work groups or undertakes special initiatives at the direction of the Governor's Office, the Legislature or the DCT Executive Board. These panels research, discuss and make recommendations matters of public policy related to the state's mental health system. Generally composed of DCT experts as well as experts from outside stakeholder and partner organizations that have a compelling interest in the issues to be examined, these task forces, work groups and panels issue formal reports and recommendations that the administration or Legislature may or may not adopt.
