Healing the World from the Inside Out:
Connection, Compassion, and Unity
Healing ourselves and the world is possible when we address our mental health, even in an uncertain world. Hear from mental health experts in the field about addiction, anxiety, suicide, multicultural mental health, and even advocacy - and their connections to healing our communities.
This summit is designed for anyone who would like to learn what mental health is, what it isn't, and how best to understand and address our own mental health through the lenses of connection, compassion, and unity.
Mental healthcare professionals/students can earn up to 10 CEUs, though the Summit is for everyone.
​
Never before has understanding the mental health of ourselves and those around us been more top of mind.
Spend the weekend on 25 acres of serene desert beauty while hearing from expert licensed professionals speaking on timely and informative topics.
