The Center's Practice, Policy, & Science Exchange

Welcome to the UIC Practice, Policy, and Science Exchange. This program promotes knowledge translation through training, dissemination, and technical assistance for the behavioral health field. The Exchange is comprised of three core components:
  • The Health & Recovery Solutions Suite is a set of products to help people with mental illnesses, their supporters, service providers, and program administrators promote self-directed recovery of health and wellness. Each product contains a downloadable resource, introductory podcast, training webinar, and access to free technical assistance.
  • The Health & Recovery Solutions Policy Academy offers online policy  toolkits, infographics, interactive maps, podcasts, webinars, legislative briefings, and access to free technical assistance.
  • The Health & Recovery Solutions Science Showcase features publications on self-directed recovery and health care integration, novel research tools, podcasts, and access to free technical assistance.
