Series Details

HEAT is a dedicated multidisciplinary forum for child and adolescent providers, community organizations, policy leaders, health system partners, and advocates to come together and drive meaningful change. Our 2023 HEAT sessions will highlight the progress UCSF and local counties have made towards the priorities developed from the initial HEAT series and further identify barriers to care for patients with mental health, behavioral health and substance use needs. Full sessions from the 2022 HEAT series can be viewed here.

The interactive virtual series will take place on the second Friday of each month from 12-1 PM to foster learning, connection and identify actions needed to strengthen the system of care for children, adolescents and their families.

An ongoing emphasis will be placed on provider burnout and strategies to enhance their wellbeing, resilience and retention, as well as DEI and antiracism effort to reduce disparities and improve equity.

In this follow-up series, we will:

  • Highlight progress toward priorities identified from the last HEAT series. 
  • Identify and discuss ongoing opportunities and barriers to implementing change.
  • Take steps to leverage opportunities and remove barriers.
