The “Ask SAMHSA” feature is an excellent resource for the entire field. This information along with the listing of links below the video screen is extremely helpful and will be shared with a broad audience of colleagues, providers, administrators, and others. Parity is an incredibly hot topic right now, and for many in the field, there seem to be more questions than answers.
Thank you for this resource SAMHSA~!
