SUMMARY:Pop-up: Supporting Children During Immigration Enforcement Operations
DESCRIPTION:Presenter: Hopewell Hodges\, MA\, PhD Candidate — Predoctoral Psychology Internat the University of Minnesota \nDate & Time: Virtual over Zoom on Friday\, January 16\, 2026 from 12:00 AM – 1:00 PM CST | 1 CEHs \nWhen our communities experience violence and fear\, children and the adults who care for them carry that weight. At Minnesota Association for Children’s Mental Health\, our values remain clear and unwavering: every child\, caregiver and family deserves safety\, dignity\, and care. We know trauma has ripple effects in our communities\, and it is our collective responsibility to respond with accountability\, compassion\, and support. \nRegistration for this training will follow a pay-what-you-can model. Contributions will go directly to supporting reflective practice groups for professionals\, many of whom are supporting and holding space for the children and families impacted by immigration enforcement operations.  \nDescription of Presentation: \nMany children from immigrant and refugee families have loved ones at risk of deportation. For these children\, immigration enforcement operations in a community can pose a risk to mental health and development. Fortunately\, supportive adults in a child’s life can play a large role in protecting children’s mental health and promoting positive development.  \nThis training offers concrete strategies that adults can use to support children during periods of uncertainty and fear. Drawn from the field of developmental resilience science and informed by clinical practice\, these strategies leverage ordinary resources around a child — most importantly\, the presence of caring adults — and can be applied by anyone in service to children\, including parents\, educators\, clinicians\, and community leaders. Attendees will learn skills for communicating with children about immigration enforcement\, restoring predictability and safety\, promoting agency\, and\, most importantly\, listening well.  \nLearning Objectives: \nAt the end of this training attendees will be able to: \n\nArticulate children’s core developmental needs amid fears of a loved one’s detention or deportation\nImplement practical strategies to support children who are afraid of a caregiver’s detention or deportation\, as well as those whose caregiver has been arrested\nAdvocate for the needs of children and families affected by immigration enforcement operations\n\n\nAbout the Presenter: Hopewell R. Hodges is a PhD candidate in the University of Minnesota’s joint-track doctoral program in developmental psychology and clinical psychology\, advised by Drs. Ann Masten and Saida Abdi. She conducts community-engaged research focused on positive development in young people exposed to multisystem adversities like forced displacement and housing loss. Because young people’s health depends to such a large extent on the functioning of surrounding systems\, Hopewell focuses much of her attention on building the capacity of the adult world to respond sensitively and creatively to children’s needs using locally effective resilience mechanisms. Her clinical work with children and families exposed to trauma often relies on a similar lens of multisystem resilience. With Dr. Charles Oberg\, she co-authored a book\, Global Impacts on Childhood Social Development: Building Resilience Amid Conflict\, Environmental Degradation\, and Climate Change\, published December 2025.  \nHopewell holds both a bachelor’s degree and a master’s degree in literature from Yale University\, both of which focused on communities’ responses to collective trauma like war\, genocide\, and colonization. She is completing her clinical internship at the Indian Health Board of Minneapolis.  \nRegister Here

SUMMARY:Give to the Max
DESCRIPTION:Donate\nIt’s Give to the Max\, a glorious time to give in Minnesota! MACMH is excited to be participating to help support our mental health programs and work with children\, families and professionals. \nIn Minnesota\, an estimated one in five children have a diagnosed mental or behavioral health condition. Yet there is a significant shortage of mental health providers available to work with children and families.   \nWe know that when children receive mental health care\, they are more likely to succeed academically\, socially\, and physically.   \nMACMH is uniquely positioned to help support and build a mental health system of culturally responsive\, supported professionals to pursue optimal mental health from infancy to young adulthood. Through accessible training\, conference\, reflective consultation\, resources and certifications\, MACMH is the professional home for those who work with infants\, children\, and young adults.   \nUnfortunately\, like many wonderful\, impactful\, and important nonprofits\, MACMH urgently needs your support to continue our work.   \nWill you donate $50 to help support our goal of raising $3\,000 to help us keep our resources up to date and our trainings accessible?   \nYour support will help us in our pursuit of optimal mental health for all of Minnesota’s infants\, children\, and young adults.  \nGive to the Max Day 2024 raised a record-breaking $37 million for 6\,556 nonprofits and schools. Join in the FUNdraising this year and support the children and families of Minnesota with a gift to MACMH.

SUMMARY:Mental Health Collaboration Hub\, Addressing the Youth Mental Health Boarding Crisis
DESCRIPTION:Register Here\nOctober 2\, 2025 | 12 – 1 PM CST | 1 CEHs | Free | Live Webinar \nOur current mental health crisis continues to put strain on our health systems\, families\, and in particular the young people in our communities. Every day in Minnesota dozens of youth present to hospitals and emergency departments in a psychiatric or behavioral health crisis. The number of youths in emergency departments in crisis has doubled in the last decade\, overwhelming hospital staff and infrastructure that is designed for medical emergencies. Stories of youth boarding (stuck) on medical units\, hallways\, and even parking garages have become more common as they have no place to go. \nThe situations are intense\, and services are scarce. The time spent boarding is increasing as well\, in some cases up to weeks or even months. This is a result of an underfunded and understaffed system of mental health care providers and human service systems. In response to this crisis\, in August 2022 stakeholders across the state began to meet to talk about the problem. Led by the Metro Health Coalition and AspireMN\, they represented the state’s largest hospitals\, counties\, mental health treatment centers\, group homes\, and advocacy groups. \nTogether these groups began identifying specific cases of youth who were boarding in inappropriate settings and trying to connect them to care. The cases were among the most difficult to place. Through grant funding provided by the state of Minnesota\, the group was able to build a secure online platform for centralized communication and automation. Thus\, the Mental Health Collaboration Hub was born. \nFor each case on the Hub\, de-identified information is submitted which allows youth to be matched with mental health providers\, safe living settings\, and other additional supports. Once a match is made\, the current care team is able to connect with the identified resources and often coordinate a safe placement. Since its conception in 2022\, the Hub has served over 400 youth. There are currently 230 organizations registered and nearly 500 individual users. Not only has the Hub facilitated the placement of numerous youth\, but it has helped identify the common risk factors that can lead to extended boarding times. For example\, our data shows that one of the most common risk factors present for young people on the Hub is the presence of aggression. Better understanding these risk factors allows practitioners in emergency rooms\, clinics\, hospitals\, and treatment centers to facilitate placement and thus provide better care to these children. \nAdditionally\, understanding the clinical presentations and dispositions can inform our policies and funding\, eventually impacting the systems that are causing the boarding crisis. Our hope is that this presentation will not only inform participants about the work that is being done to address the mental health boarding crisis\, but help empower them to envision better ways forward that can better serve our youth and their families. \nObjectives\n\nBecome familiar with the mental health boarding crisis impacting youth in Minnesota.\nLearn how the Mental Health Collaboration Hub is helping to address this issue.\nIdentify factors resulting in longer boarding times.\nIdentify ways to help shorten or prevent boarding situations\n\nPresenters: Maggie Plattes\, MD\, Hennepin Healthcare\, Todd Archbold\, LSW\, MBA\, CEO\, PraireCare\, and Yasmine Dakhama\, MD\, Hennepin Healthcare \nAbout the Presenters\nTodd Archbold is a social worker\, and the chief executive officer of PrairieCare\, a psychiatric health system based in Brooklyn Park\, MN.

SUMMARY:Changing the Narrative on Mental Health and Suicide
DESCRIPTION:Register Here\nSeptember 23\, 2025 | 1-3 pm CST | 2 CEHs | $30 | Live Webinar | with Deborah Cavitt\, MS\, CFPS – Manager of Education and Advocacy\, MACMH. \nTalking about mental health and suicide can be an uncomfortable and uncertain topic that brings up different feelings\, beliefs\, and attitudes. This session empowers individuals to begin conversations and change perceptions toward hope\, resilience\, and a more supportive narrative around mental health. \nThroughout the session\, participants will engage in dialog about being intentional in the words we are using. Certain ways of talking about mental health and suicide can alienate members of any community\, sensationalize the issue\, contribute to a decrease in help-seeking behavior\, or even present suicide as a glamorous\, preferred way of dealing with problems. \nHaving healthy conversations about mental health and suicide avoids harmful messages that might increase suicide risk in individuals or undermine suicide prevention goals. By doing this safely\, it reduces stigma\, mitigates risks\, promotes help-seeking\, and respects all individuals. \nObjectives\n\nPromote language that respects the dignity of individuals and emphasizes compassion\, including using terms that reduce stigma and foster open\, supportive conversations about mental health and suicide prevention.\nRecognize the signs for people at risk and how to respond when you identify someone who is in distress or suicidal.\nEmpower individuals to begin conversations and change perceptions toward hope\, resilience\, and a more supportive narrative around mental health.\n\nLevel: Basic | Audience: Everyone | Ages Addressed: Anyone at risk from children to adults \nAbout the Presenter\nDeborah Cavitt\, MS\, CFPS\, is the Manager of Education and Advocacy in MACMH’s Youth and Family team. Her passion is to educate\, coach\, and empower youth and families to give them hope\, knowledge\, and resources to promote resilience\, recovery\, and mental wellness. \nAs a parent with lived experience navigating the systems of mental health care for her children\, Deb understands the importance of family peer support during tough times. At MACMH\, she has trained many parents and caregivers to be Certified Family Peer Specialists to support families of children with diagnosed mental health disorders. \nBefore coming to MACMH\, Deb was a classroom teacher for twenty years and a prevention specialist for a substance abuse agency. Her bachelor’s degree is in education and psychology and my master’s degree is in human service with specializations in mental health and substance abuse counseling. \nAt MACMH Deb presents to educators\, mental health professionals\, community groups\, and parents on Early Warning Signs of Children’s Mental Health Disorders\, Suicide Prevention\, Youth Mental Health First Aid\, Bullying Prevention and many other topics related to child and adolescent mental health.
