Center for Mental Health
Implementation Support (CMHIS)

Our Goal

The Center for Mental Health Implementation Support (CMHIS) applies deep knowledge of how to implement mental health practices sustainably to help organizations and systems improve the care they provide. By supporting teams to better understand and apply implementation science-based strategies, CMHIS helps ensure that the best mental health care is not only available—but deliverable.

Through its bi-regional Hubs, CMHIS offers tailored support to guide organizations from start to finish in implementing new mental health programs or increasing the quality of already embedded programs and practices. This includes identifying barriers, strengthening staff buy-in, and navigating the complex landscape of practice change.

Whether you’re launching a new program or sustaining an existing one, CMHIS can help map the course, overcome obstacles, and provide practical guidance so that the people you serve receive the excellent care you strive to deliver every day.
