Choosing community
Building on momentum from last year’s Summit we look forward to shining the spotlight on our robust Community system of care again this October 6-7 in Seaside, Oregon. Inspired by Dr. Vivek Murthy’s parting prescription for America, the overarching theme for this year’s Summit is: “Choosing Community”.
Join us for two days of highlighting the power of community collaboration while addressing whole-person integrated care, substance use disorder, our Youth System of Care, and workforce wellness.

No matter what is happening around us, we believe prioritizing connection and community partnership, fostering a well workforce, and celebrating our strengths and accomplishments are vital elements to increasing hope and belonging, solidifying a sense of purpose, and paving the way for broad healing and community well-being.
To that end, this year in addition to our typical plenary and breakout sessions we will have an enhanced and intentional focus on wellness- providing opportunities to connect with each other throughout our two days together.
We are all in this together, can’t wait to see you in October!
