In this brief monologue, Hallie Bulkin recounts launching a 2019 initiative aimed at increasing clinicians' confidence in screening and case assessment. She explains that previously, clinicians hesitated to act, leading to prolonged wait times for children and uncertainty for families. Through targeted training, clinicians have learned to recognize issues, think through cases clearly, and guide families effectively. Bulkin emphasizes that the effort is not a disruption but an evolution of existing clinician training, and she invites listeners to join this movement toward more confident, responsive care.

This isn't just learning about how to screen, right? Back in 2019, I started all of this, and at that same time, we had clinicians who could help but who were holding back because they just didn't feel confident yet. So kids were waiting, clinicians were hesitating, and these clinicians have learned how to recognize what's actually going on and think through cases clearly and guide families in a meaningful way. And that's what you are doing now. We're not disrupting the field. We're evolving how clinicians are trained within it. And that is the movement that we are inviting you to join.
