Children's Behavioral Health Services In Baltimore: Walking The Continuum, Jennifer Ryan

National Health Policy Forum

This site visit explored the range of behavioral health services available for children in the city of Baltimore and in the state more broadly. Like many states, the policy community in Maryland has been working hard to meet the challenges of providing an effective continuum of care in the context of complex financing incentives and an overburdened educational and public health care system. Several promising practices have emerged, including the Wraparound practice model that offers individualized, comprehensive services and natural supports to achieve a positive set of outcomes for the child and family. The wraparound model incorporates both traditional services …

The Role And Responsibility Of Defense Counsel, Robert P. Mosteller, Mark Geragos, Harold A. Haddon, Laurie L. Levenson, Michael E. Tigar

Laurie Levenson begins the discussion by outlining some of the rules governing attorney behavior in the media, with special …

The Role And Responsibility Of Traditional Media, Sara Sun Beale, Sylvia Adcock, Loren Ghiglione, Malcolm Moran, Eric Lieberman, Ari Shapiro, William Raspberry

Court of Public Opinion

When high profile legal issues arise, the traditional media attempts a familiar balancing act, weighing ethical obligations of fairness, accuracy and objectivity against the necessity for timely and competitive reporting.

This mission, in itself, requires careful execution. But there is significantly more pressure in recent years, due to a voracious 24-hour news cycle, competition by new media entities that have high-tech speed and occasionally choose to remain unfettered by journalistic ethics, and challenging economic realities.

In Panel #1: The Role and Responsibility of Traditional Media, moderator Sara Beale, the Charles L. B. Lowndes Professor of Law at Duke University …
