About The Children's Technical Assistance Center (CTAC)
The Children's Technical Assistance Center (CTAC) is a training, consultation, and educational resource center available to all child-serving clinics in New York State. CTAC will help your clinic address the challenges associated with the recent changes in clinic regulations, financing, and overall healthcare reforms.
Our goal is simple: to provide clinics with a set of technical assistance and training activities and tools that promote effective care through efficient practices.
CTAC will provide training and support on quality improvement strategies for your clinic -- including training on specific clinical skills and evidence-based practices. Importantly, CTAC will help your clinic develop strong business and financial models to ensure sustainability.
CTAC training and technical assistance materials and tools are practical, user-friendly, accessible, and employ effective approaches reflecting the context of day-to-day clinic realities. Each training component accounts for today's financial and regulatory environment to insure that clinics can adapt to the rapidly changing behavioral health landscape.
Three initiatives are currently underway, described in detail under CTAC Initiatives tab above: The 4 Rs and 2 Ss for Strengthening Families (child behavioral difficulties),Training to Improve Engagement (TIES), and Effective Business Practices (a series of webinars, seminars and a learning collaborative on improving clinic practices). Check back often for new events related to each of these three initiatives.
