Description

Participate in learning about effective and efficient means of addressing mental health needs to prevent crises. Cities across the nation are experiencing dramatic growth, and with an increase of population brings an increase in citizen needs. Significant among these needs are appropriate mental health interventions. Mental disorders are common in the United States and internationally. An estimated 26.2 percent of Americans ages 18 and older, or about one in four adults, suffer from a diagnosable mental disorder in a given year. The goal of the summit is to bring together all partners who are dedicated to responding to community mental health issues, and to design a process that can benefit all parties. During this summit, attendees will gain knowledge about various mental health issues, interventions/techniques to address these issues, and networking opportunities to connect with entities that may be of assistance in the future.
