Community Advisory Board

The Community Advisory Board is open to anyone with lived experience as a patient, survivor, or caregiver. No credentials required.  Your experience is your qualification. We welcome:

• Current or former patients

• Family members, caregivers, and loved ones

• Patient and community advocates

• People from communities underrepresented in healthcare​

​

We are committed to a Community Advisory Board that reflects the full diversity of the people we serve and strongly encourage applications from those who have historically been excluded from advisory roles.  We do require that all members are 18+ and reside in Arizona.

​

What Community Advisory Board Members Do

• Review Foundation programs, materials, and communications from a patient perspective

• Share insights to help us better understand community needs

• Advise on how we can be more accessible and trustworthy to the people we serve

• Participate in working sessions on specific programs or initiatives​

​

You will never be asked to share more than you're comfortable with. We'll always work with you to make participation accessible and meaningful.

​

Time Commitment

Members attend two 45-minute meetings per year and participate in at least one activity, working session, or review request annually. One-year terms, renewable annually.

Partner Advisory Board

The Partner Advisory Board is open to mental health professionals and practice owners who want to help shape programs that better serve patients and providers alike. We welcome:

• Solo and group mental health practice owners

• Psychiatry practice owners and psychiatrists

• Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) directors and administrators

• Urgent care operators serving mental health needs

• Mental health facility leaders and administrators

​

Current active work in or ownership of a mental health practice or facility is required. Your on-the-ground expertise is what makes this board valuable.

​

What Partner Advisory Board Members Do

• Advise on Foundation programs and initiatives from a provider and practice perspective

• Share insight into the real challenges patients and practices face

• Review materials, resources, and programs for clinical relevance and practical impact

• Help the Foundation build more effective partnerships with the provider community

• Engage in at least one meaningful activity per year — such as a working group, feedback session, or collaborative project
