BTST Services’ Post

Can We Talk about the symposium? BTST Services was a proud sponsor and participant of the 2024 Can We Talk? Symposium. Attendees had the unique opportunity to join BTST for a fireside dialogue (Shaping the Future: Dialogue on Youth Mental Health) that sparked inspiration and shared insights on shaping the future of youth mental health. With the participation of Maryland’s First Lady, Dawn Moore, COO, Jada McCray, and CEO, Chris Simon, this conversation explored innovative strategies and collaborative efforts to create positive change and improve youth mental health outcomes for individuals and communities. Later that day, attendees joined us for an enlightening panel discussion (Empire State of Mind: Scaling Mental Health Ventures in an Evolving Business Landscape) as our CEO Chris Simon, COO Jada McCray delve, moderated by Dr. Destiny-Simone Ramjohn into the dynamic world of scaling mental health ventures amidst a rapidly shifting business terrain. They explore various strategic expansion models tailored for individual therapists, private practices, and beyond.
