Our founder and organization was invited to present at the annual WASHAA conference.

​

This year's theme:

Whole Person Advocacy: Integrating Mental Health
Annual Conference Sponsored by WASHAA*

Mental and behavioral health issues plague our society, but it wasn’t until recently that research has proven that including mental health management into clinical care can improve health outcomes and save money.  What does this mean for patient care?  Many states have a goal of integrating mental health into primary care, but is this really happening? The WASHAA 8th Annual Conference will explore innovative health care models and programs that show us how integrative health strategies can heal the whole person.
