What Does Lived Experience Really Mean and Why Is It Important?. Year Developed: 2023. Source: The Northwest Mental Health Technology Transfer Center Network. Presenter(s): Pat Deegan, PhD. Type: Webinar. Level: Introductory. Length: 92 minutes.

Annotation: The phrase "lived experience" is widely used in behavioral health, but what does it really mean? Is lived-experience a code word meaning “former mental patient”? Isn’t all experience, “lived experience” and therefore isn’t “lived experience” redundant? Can a clinician have lived experience? In this webinar, Pat Deegan will explore the origins of “lived experience” in philosophy and its migration into behavioral health. She will argue that lived experience introduces a new way of knowing that can complement, and at times disrupt, the clinical world view. The Northwest Mental Health Technology Transfer Center is committed to ensuring digital accessibility. We are continually improving the user experience for everyone and applying the relevant accessibility standards.

Learning Objectives: • What does lived experience really mean? • Lived experience is important because it is a source of wisdom that can be helpful to others. • Lived experience is important because it is another way of knowing.

Strengthening Women’s Health Access: Medicaid and Family Planning. Year Developed: 2023. Source: National Institute for HealthCare Management. Presenter(s): Jason Lindo, MA, PhD; Jessica Cohen, PhD; Wanicha Burapa, MD, MPH; Kate Daniel, MS, CHES. Type: Webinar. Level: Introductory. Length: 61 minutes.

Annotation: An estimated 2 million unplanned pregnancies are prevented each year due to family planning services obtained through Title X, Medicaid, and other publicly funded programs. Expanded access to contraception produces many economic benefits for women, such as bolstering educational attainment, labor force participation, and earnings. Affordable access to contraception, including long-acting reversible contraception (LARC) and oral contraceptive pills, is proven to result in fewer unintentional pregnancies and significant cost savings to the health care system. Experts say that ongoing restrictions on reproductive health care may reduce contraceptive use, leading to more unplanned births and exacerbating health inequities. This webinar explores women’s health access, focusing on the impact of Medicaid and family planning.

Learning Objectives: • Discuss the impact of contraception on childbearing outcomes and women’s economic status. • Understand Medicaid’s role in providing LARCs to prevent unplanned pregnancies and fill postpartum care gaps. • Learn a state’s perspective on strengthening family planning programs, including expanding access to contraception.

Annotation: This webinar provides attendees with a roadmap for understanding the science of trust, including strategies that can both develop, nurture, and repair trust between families and professionals. It outlines how researchers have documented new, ongoing, and growing conflict between families of students with disabilities and the professionals who serve them. The presenter explains that the majority of these challenges begin with a lack of trust, that has either never existed in the partnership or deteriorated as a result of a breakdown in communication, incompatible goals, and/or misunderstanding between parties. The webinar reinforces that trust is one of the most commonly mentioned partnership barriers discussed in the literature. Despite this acknowledgment of trust, the science of understanding, developing and nurturing trust is rarely defined, or described in a way that supports conflict prevention or resolution between families and professionals.

Learning Objectives: • Define trust for the family-professional partnership. • Understand the importance of trust. • Identify the barriers to trust. • Describe the relationship between trust and conflict. • Apply strategies used to develop and nurture trust.
