Do we truly believe that all people deserve access to mental health care? 

This fundamental and purposely provocative question will kick off the 2024 Summit and set the stage for further inquiry, including: 

March 1, 2024, from 12:00 pm – 1:15 pm ET

 

Please join us on March 1, 2024, from 12:00 pm to 1:15 pm for a virtual convening to explore what we know about 988.

The goal of the panel is to address cutting-edge research and data about 988 in order to decriminalize mental illness and inform the continued efforts to build a robust and human-centered crisis care continuum across the nation. 

Sozosei Summit Solution Labs — a new series of virtual events — enables us to dig deeper into topics that accelerate the decriminalization of mental illness.
