Description
28th Annual Conference
November 9-12, 2017
Did you know that 1 in 5 children in America experience social, emotional and behavioral challenges? One undisputed constant in our society is that all children who survive childhood and adolescence will become adults. For children who experience untreated behavioral health disorders, this typically results in adults who continue to struggle with symptoms, who become parents and who perpetuate this cycle. The impact of this reoccurring cycle is felt throughout our society.
For over 25 years, the National Federation of Families for Children’s Mental Health has been the nationwide advocacy organization with families as its sole focus, playing an important role in helping children, youth and their families whose lives are impacted by mental health challenges. This important work is supported largely by the generous donors like you who contribute to our cause.
Our 28th Annual Conference will feature many great workshops and speakers this year, joining hundreds of mental health advocates and professionals from across the nation as we work to educate and empower children, youth, and families!
Help support the work of the National Federation of Families while receiving great exposure by reserving an exhibit table at the 28th Annual Conference. Your booth will be visited by over 1,000 family advocacy and child mental health leaders from across the nation. Space is limited!
Each exhibitor will receive a 6ft. exhibit table, their logo on our conference website, their logo in our conference program and lunch for up to 2 exhibitors (Friday and Saturday). Exhibitors receive a registration discount if attending the conference, in addition to exhibiting, to participate in workshops and take advantage of networking opportunities at the meal fuctions. A maximum of two discounted registrations are allowed for each exhibit table purchased. Our chapter and state organization members of the National Federation of Families enjoy great savings as well! Deadline for exhibitor table registration is September 30, 2017 or when space is filled. For more details about our exhibitor opportunities, click here.
