Adult Quality, Access and Policy Committee

This committee works with the Behavioral Health Partnership and the Department of Mental Health and Addiction Services to maximize the value of programs to adult consumers, families and providers. With a focus on enhancing quality and access to services, the committee reviews data that measures the effectiveness of DMHAS and BHP policies, procedures and initiatives; reports to the Council on results; raises concerns and makes recommendations within the purview of the Council’s authority.

The committee, in collaboration with the Child/Adolescent Quality, Access, and Policy Committee, also works through the Council to provide input into the state’s plan for federal health care reform, and other emerging mental health policy and program developments. The committee may from time to time discuss, review and make recommendations about other areas of interest that intersect with the work of the BHP.
