Abstract
The acceptance speech by the recipient of the CFHA 2019 Don Bloch Award is presented. The recipient notes that her work for the last 35 years has focused on increasing access to comprehensive and high quality health care for underresourced and marginalized populations, with a strong emphasis on strengthening systems and clinical practice. Her journey to promote integrated behavioral health began in 2005 and has led to some success in accelerating the adoption and robust expansion of behavioral health integration into primary care in the Philadelphia region. While she has been gratified to create a structure for training, advocacy, and ongoing process improvement to support the talented and dedicated behavioral health providers and clinical teams who do the hard work of caring for our vulnerable patient populations, "everything I know and believe about integrated care I have learned from this association and those affiliated with CFHA."
