In November 2009, New Haven's Executive Director, Dustin Tibbitts, LMFT officially documented New Haven's support for the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration's (SAMHSA) Building Bridges Initiative.

SAMHSA first held a Building Bridges Summit June 14-17, 2006. The purpose of the summit was to build bridges between residential and community based service delivery providers, families and youth in these ways:


  • establish defined areas of consensus, related to values, philosophies, and services;

  • develop a joint statement about the importance of creating a comprehensive service array for children, youth, and families, inclusive of residential and out-of-home treatment settings as part of the entire range of services;

  • identify emerging best practices in linking residential and community services;

  • set the stage for strengthening relationships and promoting consensus building;

  • Create action steps for the future.



Gary M. Blau, Chief, Child, Adolescent, and Family Branch Center for Mental Health Services, SAMHSA, was responsible for organizing the summit. Participants included residential and community-based service providers, leaders from national organizations, and youth and family leaders, as well as the Child Welfare League of America.

Gary M. Blau, PhD, Chief, Child and Adolescent Family Branch of the Center for Mental Health Services can be reached at 240-276-1921, or via e-mail at: gary.blau@samhsa.hhs.gov , to convey your support or request additional information.
