Join us! April 12th & 16th for a live panel lunch & learn!

Behavioral health work in Tennessee is demanding, complex, and deeply human. Leadership Unscripted: Be Nimble & Gritty was created to offer something different: honest conversations with Tennessee behavioral health leaders who have lived this not perfectly, but persistently. This is not about titles. It’s about staying in the work, adapting to constant change, and leading with integrity when the system feels heavy. Whether you’re brand new, aspiring to lead, or feeling tired and unsure, you belong here.

Online screening is one of the quickest and easiest ways to see what mental health symptoms you might be experiencing. It's free, quick, confidential, and backed up by science. Mental health conditions are real and common. And recovery is possible!

Take the first steps here.

How does it work? After your brief quiz that takes less than 5 minutes to complete, you'll see information, resources, and tools to help you understand and improve your mental health. These screenings ask the hard questions that you may not think to ask yourself. We know starting the conversation can be the hardest first step. You can use these results as a personal assessment or share the results with a loved one or your doctor to get the conversation going!

Check in on yourself and share this with someone you love!
