The 2025 OPEN MINDS Community Impact Through Innovation Award – Sponsored by Qualifacts
Nashville, Tenn. and Gettysburg, Pa., June 09, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Qualifacts, a leading provider of electronic health record (EHR) and data solutions for behavioral health and human services organizations, in collaboration with OPEN MINDS, has launched the 2025 Community Impact Through Innovation Award to recognize an exceptional provider organization that is using technology in transformative ways to enhance consumer care and drive meaningful outcomes in their community. Applications are now open for this national initiative, which will culminate in a live award presentation at the 2025 OPEN MINDS Service Excellence Institute on August 13 in Long Beach, California.
“Advancing technology in health and human services is no longer optional—it’s essential for delivering equitable, effective, and compassionate care. We are proud to partner with OPEN MINDS to recognize organizations that are not only innovating but doing so with a clear focus on improving outcomes for individuals and communities. This award celebrates those who are setting a new standard for how technology can empower providers, support clinicians, and transform care at scale,” said Josh Schoeller, Chief Executive Officer at Qualifacts.
This award is open to U.S.-based provider organizations delivering services to individuals with behavioral health conditions—including mental health and substance use disorders—or cognitive disabilities such as intellectual/developmental disabilities (I/DD), autism, dementia, or traumatic brain injuries. Eligible applicants must demonstrate how they have implemented a technology solution that improved the consumer experience or outcomes—and had a measurable impact on the community they serve.
The judging criteria focus on three core areas: innovation, impact, and scalability. Applicants should highlight creative and original uses of technology, provide performance data or outcomes demonstrating measurable improvements, and show potential for broader adoption across the field.
To be considered, organizations must complete the application by June 27, 2025. Selected applicants will participate in a web-based meeting to discuss their submission. Only one organization will be selected as the award recipient. The winning organization will be invited to present their innovation and accept the award in person at the 2025 OPEN MINDS Service Excellence Institute.
The winning organization will receive a prize package that includes:
- On-stage award ceremony on August 13, 2025, at the opening of the institute, with presentation by Josh Schoeller, Chief Executive Officer of Qualifacts, and Monica E. Oss, Chief Executive Officer of OPEN MINDS
- National recognition through a press release, digital media, and social channels
