Part 2 of our conversation with Scott Bryant-Comstock covers the intention of, and evolution of, the Children’s Mental Health Network (CMHN), an organization he founded to act as an independent voice supporting improvements in mental health practices for children and young adults. The CMHN managed to bring together people from diverse backgrounds for dialog around interventions, policy change and current systems of care. This “old geezer” (his words) shares experiences and wisdom, but reminds us that as an “elder” he can give us his wisdom, but that the engine that’s going to drive mental health improvements forward in in the hands of the young adults with lived experience, and he urges us to “get busy”. Scott’s storytelling abilities and his journey is not to be missed!
