2025 Children’s Behavioral Health Summit

Breaking Stigmas, Empowering Families, Creating System Change
 
Join us on Monday, May 5th to explore how personal stories can drive change, break down stigma, and influence policy. Participants will engage in discussions on the value of lived experience, learn how to effectively share their stories, and discover where their voices can make the biggest impact. Breakout
sessions will provide space to explore advocacy & training opportunities, while a panel of youth, parents, and system leaders will highlight real-world examples of lived experience shaping the system. By coming together, we can strengthen our collective voice and create a more inclusive and responsive behavioral health system in Washington State.

Understanding the System of Care

This is a customized, interactive training designed for families from a training created by En Route Consulting for WA State Health Care Authority. The System of Care is the philosophy the WA State Children’s Behavioral Health Community foundation is built upon. Understanding its history, model, and values is essential to ensuring our families’ treatment plans follow this model of service. (90-minute mini-training or 3-hour full training)
