Council of Experts
Expert Council Members are individuals who have diverse and wide-ranging expertise germane to S2i’s mission and have provided guidance to the development of S2i. They have agreed to continue to provide input as S2i’s work evolves and form a community of people whose collective talents and commitments can help advance mental health transformation. The members reflect S2i’s commitment to broad racial, gender, and cross-sectoral diversity and reflect S2i’s broad view of expertise, ranging from lived experience to deep involvement in mental health policy and practice to policy and program work in other fields and approaches to social policy change. The members also reflect S2i’s goal of being a connector across sectors and approaches to addressing the challenges of mental health issues in the nation.
