On May 18, 2023, we held an educational webinar for the public on mental well-being for New Yorkers. Sarah Downs, WellSpark Director of Health Programming and Delivery hosted the event. She interviewed Dr. Kelly McGuire, EmblemHealth Medical Director of Mental Health, Terri Rhymes-Lowery Regional Manager of EmblemHealth Neighborhood Care, and Matt Kudish CEO of the National Alliance on Mental Illness New York City (NAMI-NYC).
The webinar included a clinical overview of common mental health conditions, a discussion on coping and supporting loved ones, actionable tips for improving mental well-being, and a question-and-answer session with the panelists. New York City Council Member Linda Lee, Chair of the Committee on Mental Health, Disabilities, and Addiction, and Dr. Dara Kass, Regional Director of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services provided opening remarks.
