Taking low-intensity intervention to the field

Robust evidence exists for the clinical effectiveness of non-specialist delivered mental health care packages, including psychotherapeutic interventions. Yet there is scant evidence for how to effectively deliver these packages in resource-limited, public primary care and community settings. The presentation briefly describes the implementation model used in Rwanda by Partners in Health to facilitate non-specialist delivered mental health interventions at both the primary care and community levels. Opportunities for adapting other evidence-based mental health interventions will be discussed.
