NAMI: TRIAD Project to Collect Data for Advocacy Asks What is Necessary for Recovery
NAMI press release on TRIAD, the Treatment/Recovery Information and Advocacy Database - "TRIAD is a process by which NAMI, in collaboration with other stake-holders, will collect a variety of data that characterizes the gap between the services, supports, and environment we all agree are necessary for recovery and what exists in each state. But TRIAD will not just collect data - it also seeks to inform advocacy efforts with better data to achieve better investment and better services to ultimately close that gap."
