• learn the behavioral healthcare delivery system in Virginia and the bodies that are responsible for monitoring and changing the system
• discover why they are needed, how they fit into systemic change, and how to find and monitor parts of systemic change
• learn about the different types of changemaking bodies, how to effectively participate, and how to find vacancies
• create a plan and find individuals that can help them be successful in the changemaking role
