About this event

  • 1 day 23 hours

The theme of the 44th annual CMHACY Conference is

Mental Health is Everyone’s Business: Inclusive Conversations for Changing Times

CMHACY is a unique opportunity for attendees from multiple perspectives and backgrounds to meaningfully connect with one another while participating in interactive conversations on topics relevant to the mental wellness of youth and families. We aim to hold space for youth, advocates, parents, policymakers, and providers to ensure that voice and choice remains foundational to the conversations around California’s changing healthcare system. We believe that all voices need to be heard, all stories need to be told, and that we all must work together to keep our finger on the pulse of California’s rapidly changing mental and behavioral healthcare landscape.

CMHACY

CMHACY advances the social, emotional, and behavioral wellbeing of children and families and promotes inclusion, racial equity, and social justice for all through convening, education, and advocacy.

California Mental Health Advocacy for Children and Youth (CMHACY) is a diverse association of passionate stakeholders who promote high-quality behavioral health services for children, youth, and families. Comprised of parents, youth, public and private sector providers, educators, County agency leaders, state department officials, policymakers and professional advocates, CMHACY’s “signature event” is the annual conference held on the picturesque Asilomar Conference grounds in Pacific Grove.

Since 1980 this conference has offered a forum for policy development, spawned collaboration and partnerships among counties and providers, incubated state-wide parent and youth organizations, hosted nationally recognized speakers, and showcased cutting-edge programs and clinical advances. The conference’s unique, “rustic” culture encourages informal interaction among consumers, providers, policymakers, and advocates.
