Workforce Education & Training (WET)
Workforce Education and Training (WET) is one of the 5 components of the Mental Health Services Act (MHSA). The WET component of MHSA was established to address the ongoing workforce development needs for public behavioral health departments. This includes a specific focus on the recruitment, training and retention of a qualified workforce that is culturally competent and recovery-oriented, that incorporates those with lived-experience, and includes those with language and cultural capacities that help meet the needs of the communities we serve. To achieve these goals, WET established five (5) individual work plans, which are Workforce Staffing and Support, Training and Technical Assistance, Career Pathways, Residency and Internships and Financial Incentives.
