The Washington State Mental Health Summit is an inclusive forum for stakeholders around the state to develop, share, and advance new and promising ideas, opportunities and collaborations that will advance effective education, prevention, and care for Washingtonians living with mental health and addiction problems. The event is open to any mental health stakeholder interested in participating in the improvement of mental health care in Washington State.
New initiatives will be presented at the event with the expectation stakeholder attendees will enlist to be part of the drive to completion. These new innovations will be featured against the backdrop of initiatives that have preceded them at prior events. We're excited to celebrate the many successes of past initiatives and present the latest slate of initiatives chosen by the Summit Advisory Council as promising and transformative innovations in the world of mental health.
