Michigan Association of Community Mental Health Boards Provider Alliance
The Provider Alliance
Strategic Plan Follow this link to read our position paper: Provider Alliance White Paper Click here for a calendar of 2007/2008 Provider Alliance Meetings. The mission of The Provider Alliance is to provide a means to act as a group on matters affecting Michigan’s public mental health system. WHO WE ARE: THE PROVIDER ALLIANCE membership consists of all MACMHB affiliate members who provide direct services. We represent more than thirty agencies that serve thousands of adults and children. If you are a provider of direct services and an MACMHB affiliate member, you are now a member of THE PROVIDER ALLIANCE. WHAT WE BELIEVE: 1. RECOGNITION: Direct service providers are the foundation of Michigan’s community mental health system. We know the mental health system intimately, as it touches the daily life experience of persons with disabilities. Our insight and knowledge are essential to maintaining an effective service delivery system. 2. STRENGTH: An effective community services system is built on strong capable direct service providers. To be worthwhile The Provider Alliance must contribute to the strength and capability of its members. 3. RATIONALITY: Successful service delivery requires judicious use of resources. Regulatory mechanisms must be sensible and uncomplicated. Bureaucracy must not create waste or hinder provision of services. Resources must be concentrated on enhancing the lives of the persons we serve. 4. ACTION: Without action, ideas are worthless. With focused action, a few can have great impact. TPA members act together so that our energies produce results. 5. CONTRIBUTION: An effective community mental health system requires partnership. Our activities focus on sustaining a dynamic partnership that provides clear benefit to persons with disabilities, provider agencies, and managing authorities.
