What does it really mean to provide Open Access to care — and what does it take to make it work?

This interactive Community of Practice session will explore the benefits and challenges of moving beyond conventional referral and intake pathways toward more immediate, flexible access to mental health and substance use health supports. Through real-world implementation examples and facilitated discussion, participants will explore what it takes to make Open Access work at both the system and service level.
