This video is about consumer operated service programs (COSPs) and their role in the service system. The video illustrates one example of a consumer-run program, SIDE.
SIDE is an independent non-profit, multi-service, consumer-run agency in Kansas. It provides drop-in services as well as structured peer-support and education groups, art expression, and social opportunities. The governing board and employees of SIDE are all mental health consumers.
The video highlights the story of one member, Kelly, but many members talk about what being part of a COSP means in their lives.
SIDE and the local mental health center talk about their collaborative relationship which is rewarding, as well as challenging at times. Both agencies feel they are stronger because of this relationship.
Also featured are policy makers and mental health administrators from around the country sharing their perspective about why COSPs are important and useful services. Speakers include:
Kathryn Power, Director of the Center for Mental Health Services
Arthur Evans, Director of the Philadelphia Office of Behavioral Health and Mental Retardation
Melodie Riefer, a state-level consumer affairs director
Ed Knight, a Vice President at a Values Option Managed Care company
Linda Rosenberg, of the National Council of Behavioral Healthcare Centers

En febrero de 2011, SAMHSA convocó un concurso de anuncios de servicio público sobre la prevención del abuso de sustancias y trastornos mentales (PSA por sus siglas en inglés). Este concurso dirigido a jóvenes adultos, les exhortaba a crear un video original de 15 a 30 segundos que abordara el tema "Nosotros hacemos la diferencia, ¿Qué esfuerzo estás haciendo tú?" También se les requería que ilustraran la manera en que la gente joven está trabajando para prevenir el abuso de sustancias y promover la salud mental en sus comunidades. Para este proyecto, se alentó a los jóvenes a considerar qué es lo que hacen a diario y reconocer que los pequeños esfuerzos pueden marcar una gran diferencia.
Este es el video ganador del concurso y se titula: "Soy más de lo que se ve a simple vista." Lo produjo un grupo de adolescentes y jóvenes adultos de Richmond, California. Ellos forman parte del centro juvenil RYSE, cuyo objetivo es desarrollar liderazgo en jóvenes para fomentar un cambio en la salud a nivel personal y comunitario. Este video resalta las formas en que los jóvenes pueden enfocarse en sus propios talentos y en su fortaleza interior para prevenir el abuso de sustancias y promover el bienestar emocional en su comunidad.
