This activity was presented as part of APA's Looking Beyond Series, a lecture series that examines strategies and opportunities to improve the mental health of historically marginalized and minoritized communities.

Systems-based integrated approaches, such as the Collaborative Care Model (CoCM) have the potential to address disparities that stem from a lack of equal access to effective care. The Collaborative Care Model holds promise for closing the mental health treatment and outcome gap for at-risk populations, including low-income, racial and ethnic minorities, and rural and geriatric groups. Research has demonstrated the efficacy and effectiveness of CoCM for the treatment of depression and anxiety, as well as improvement of treatment initiation, quality of care received and health outcomes for diverse populations. Panelists will describe the principles and evidence-based results of the Collaborative Care Model through a mental health equity lens.
Learning Objectives
- Review the components and principles of the Collaborative Care Model (CoCM) and the research supporting its efficacy and effectiveness in mental health care.
- Analyze the impact of CoCM on mental health care access, treatment quality and outcomes and its potential to address inequities among at-risk populations.
- List examples on practical implementation for practitioners, institutions, governments and communities.
- Evaluate emerging innovations (technology, cultural centering) applied in parallel with CoCM frameworks.
