"The trainings offered through BHTP make important, relevant training topics accessible for programs like mine that serve rural county communities. BHTP has provided access to high quality trainings... that have expanded my clinical skillset and perception to short, digestible trainings focused on specific topics that are of interest. The trainings have allowed me to network with other county staff and focus on how the topics that I am learning about really apply in the world of a county behavioral health system."
