About Petrina L. Williams

I\'m a Licensed Independent Clinical Mental and Behavioral Health Leader, excellent at directing program management and policy development for a comprehensive health program, particularly targeting historically underserved populations with substance use and co-occurring psychiatric disorders. I\'m currently directing a $4 million federal SAMHSA grant and manage multi-unit human services facilities for criminal justice, substance abuse, mental health, and the homeless. I have executive experience steering administrative matters and shaping organizational mission and vision. The added value I bring to the table is that I am results-driven, with a sharp, consistent focus on delivering clinical outcome KPIs, including patient retention, successful program completion rates, and transitions through the continuum of care. Additionally, I am well-versed in leading a multi-disciplinary team, setting the standard of clinical and professional excellence by providing clear expectations and accountability for clinical staff.
