Albany, in the Northeastern Region, was the site of CEIC’s first Leadership Forum, conducted at the end of January 2009. In March, representatives from provider agencies and county departments were invited to a “Regional Implementation Forum,” the precursor of the CEIC “Building Capability Forum.”

To date, CEIC technical assistance specialists have conducted on-site assessments of co-occurring capability of 33 outpatient programs (20 in 2008/2009 and 13 in 2010) in the Northeast Region (18 in Albany County, 2 in each of Columbia, Greene, and Rensselaer Counties, plus 3 in Saratoga County, 4 in Schenectady County and 2 Schoharie County).

Note: The Northeastern Region was recently reconfigured to include Fulton and Montgomery Counties, formerly part of a separate four-county region (Mohawk Valley), which has now been eliminated. The remaining two counties of what was the Mohawk Valley Region (Herkimer and Oneida) have been assigned to the Central Region.

*The Building Capability Forum noted above was, at the time, called an “Implementation Forum for Providers”, and was the precursor of the Building Capability Forum in its current form.
